sure you can if you are using an LDAP directory. just how crappy is
your connection? because the BDC would need to either query the PDC's
ldap directory directly, or be a slave (or master/master) and get
account changes propagated to it. Then, you'd still need to get access
to the files somehow such as using distributed filesystem (which would
still get the files from your server and go over your low latency
connection in real time) or mirror the files to your BDC using unison.
Is there not money in your budget to upgrade your crappy connection?
Are there things you can do to make your connection not as crappy such
as installing a squid http proxy server? is your connection crappy
because it is at 100% utilization or crappy because it goes up and down?

Making a VPN does not work because my office has a crappy connection.
Is it possible to install a BDC in a datacenter for the remote people?
