Jon,
I have thought for a while that this would be one of the best ways to
provide remote access to ebase, but we have not had access to a terminal
server to test it.
Theoretically it is possible, and FileMaker provides support for this
approach (see http://www.filemaker.com/support/terminal_server_faq.html).
If you are interested in exploring this (especially if you have a terminal
server), let's talk. We will definitely be testing this approach with ASP
deployment of v2 on ChangeFrame, but that is a few months off.
