Ebase is a set of FileMaker documents, plus a runtime version of FileMaker. When you download ebase and unpack the archive, these files are placed on your local machine. When you run ebase, the files containing your data are all on your machine. There is no component of the system at other locations, and your data lives at your site. As Eric says, though, there are several other means by which other people can get access to your data over the internet. As the saying goes, "This is a feature, not a bug." This is the method by which you can share your data with remote locations such as other sites your organization maintains. You do need to control access, and there are means to do this with passwords and firewalls. -- -- Dave Shaw H4 Consulting tel: 206-954-7526 fax: 206-625-1338 ------------------ Reminder to each recipient: To change your list account preferences, go to http://email.sparklist.com/scripts/lyris.pl?enter=support and enter the email address you used to subscribe to the ebase support list:: [email protected] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- ebase - Relationship Management for Nonprofits, http://www.ebase.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------
