I had a user using 98 as the server and 2000 as the
workstation.  They had problems but I can't remember
what the problem was off the top of my head.
 
Sounds backwards having 98 (I assume an older
and slower computer) do the server stuff.
 
Good luck
Marc

I'm sitting here helping out another consultant who has
significant database corruption at several clients.  I have
practically no corruption at any of my clients.  One common
thread he thought of -- these clients have XP or 2000
workstations connecting to a database on a Windows 98
database server.  Anyone have this configuration?

BTW the reason it's on Win98, is that when he had the
database on W2000 server he said that one user logging in
had no problems.  As soon as one other person connected
the performance degraded significantly.  Putting the database
on Win98 server put the performance back.  So I guess another
question would be if there was a fix for that.....

thank!
