what the heck are you asking?...\n\nperhaps providing onsite resources rather than having to go outside the network to get information?\n\nI think that question is useing term "intranet" loosely...

The problem your going to find is pulling the database thru any VPN. The size of your pipe vs. the size of the database will limit how useable the process actually is. If your actually opening, writting and saving you'll find it an impossible task if the database is of any size.\n\nThe best solution for this is Terminal Server and VPN. You host the database on a central Term Server then remote users VPN in and run the database locally and only the screens are moving back and forth instead of the data itself.\n\nThere are otehr solutiosn such as Sharepoint and Foldershare but as I said the size of the database is key.\n\nFeel free to contact us for more info.

I assume you are referring to your internet access at your workplace. My company also employs Websense to block certain websites (e.g. porn, MySpace, YouTube). Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do about this. At least nothing that I would recommend. You can use a proxy service, but I highly recommend against it since any savvy IT department will notice this activity right away.

A device that forwards data packets along networks. A router is connected to at least two networks, commonly two LANs or WANs or a LAN and its ISP’s network. Routers are located at gateways, the places where two or more networks connect.\n\nRouters use headers and forwarding tables to determine the best path for forwarding the packets, and they use protocols such as ICMP to communicate with each other and configure the best route between any two hosts.\n\nVery little filtering of data is done through routers. \n\nA system designed to prevent unauthorized access to or from a private network. Firewalls can be implemented in both hardware and software, or a combination of both. Firewalls are frequently used to prevent unauthorized Internet users from accessing private networks connected to the Internet, especially intranets. All messages entering or leaving the intranet pass through the firewall, which examines each message and blocks those that do not meet the specified security criteria.\n\nThere are several types of firewall techniques:\n# Packet filter: Looks at each packet entering or leaving the network and accepts or rejects it based on user-defined rules. Packet filtering is fairly effective and transparent to users, but it is difficult to configure. In addition, it is susceptible to IP spoofing.\n# Application gateway: Applies security mechanisms to specific applications, such as FTP and Telnet servers. This is very effective, but can impose a performance degradation.\n# Circuit-level gateway: Applies security mechanisms when a TCP or UDP connection is established. Once the connection has been made, packets can flow between the hosts without further checking.\n# Proxy server: Intercepts all messages entering and leaving the network. The proxy server effectively hides the true network addresses.\n\nIn practice, many firewalls use two or more of these techniques in concert.\n\nA firewall is considered a first line of defense in protecting private information. For greater security, data can be encrypted.\n\nI have a router and a firewall.  A combination of both will provide the best security.  The more layers an attacker has to get through, the less likely he will try.  I have a D-Link router and I use ZoneAlarm as my firewall.

I went here:  http://ehkconsulting.co.uk  and it pulled up the site.  Ensure that the LAN you're behind doesn't have web filtering such as proxy servers used.

Every time you visit a webpage there is actually a complex bit of connection negotiating that happens. The short version is you send a request, then there is a reply. \n\nThe request does not go directly to the website, just as your phone call does not go directly to your best friend's phone. It has to "route" through your phone company and then your friend's phone company.\n\nYour Internet connection works much the same way. You have an Internet company that is your employer's IT department. They can see your connections to other websites, which have hosting providers.\n\nAlso, almost all companies have remote administration and management software. I regularly control remote users PCs when they have troubleshooting that needs done. This same software can be used or modified to monitor users remotely. Your IT department may indicate they have to have your request first, but that is only because of policy, not because they cannot configure the software to do so.\n\nAs far as "stopping" goes, you can learn about using proxies, but as an IT person myself, I would highly suggest just asking your supervisor which websites he/she found offensive and no longer visiting them. You are there to work and get paid, aren't you?\n\nKeep in mind that even if you use proxies or a method of hiding where you are actually going, there is always still a way to find out, it just depends on how much work your IT department wants to go through. Even secure connections can be faked through something call a "man-in-the-middle" attack, which your IT department is in a very good location to perform. If you are at all concerned about your IT department's ability to monitor you, do not use your banking websites or view any websites you would not want your boss to know about.\n\nMost companies have a somewhat liberal policy on visiting websites and/or block websites that are already problems, like YouTube, MySpace, and others. If your employer doesn't meet your expectations for reasonable Internet use, find another one that does.

nternet, the \n \nADVERTISEMENT\n \n Paper cups should be:  \n \n   \n Durable \n Cute \n Recyclable \n \n \n \n  \n \n \n \nInternet, the, international computer network linking together thousands of individual networks at military and government agencies, educational institutions, nonprofit organizations, industrial and financial corporations of all sizes, and commercial enterprises (called gateways or service providers) that enable individuals to access the network. The most popular features of the Internet include electronic mail (e-mail), discussion groups (called newsgroups or bulletin boards, where users can post messages and look for responses on a system called Usenet), on-line conversations (called chats), adventure and role-playing games, information retrieval, and electronic commerce (e-commerce).\n\nThe public information stored in the multitude of computer networks connected to the Internet forms a huge electronic library, but the enormous quantity of data and number of linked computer networks also make it difficult to find where the desired information resides and then to retrieve it. A number of progressively easier-to-use interfaces and tools have been developed to facilitate searching. Among these are search engines, such as Archie, Gopher, and WAIS (Wide Area Information Server), and a number of commercial indexes, such as Google or Yahoo, which are programs that use a proprietary algorithm or other means to search a large collection of documents for keywords and return a list of documents containing one or more of the keywords. Telnet is a program that allows users of one computer to connect with another, distant computer in a different network. The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is used to transfer information between computers in different networks. The greatest impetus to the popularization of the Internet came with the introduction of the World Wide Web (WWW), a hypertext system that makes browsing the Internet both fast and intuitive. Most e-commerce occurs over the Web.\n\nEach computer that is directly connected to the Internet is uniquely identified by a 32-bit binary number called its IP address. This address is usually seen as a four-part decimal number, each part equating to 8 bits of the 32-bit address in the decimal range 0—255. Because an address of the form 4.33.222.111 could be difficult to remember, a system of Internet addresses, or domain names, was developed in the 1980s. Reading from left to right, the parts of a domain name go from specific to general. For example, www.irs.ustreas.gov is a World Wide Web site at the Internal Revenue Service, which is part of the U.S. Treasury Dept., which is a government agency. The rightmost part, or top-level domain (or suffix or zone), can be a two-letter abbreviation of the country in which the computer is in operation; more than 250 abbreviations, such as "ca" for Canada and "uk" for United Kingdom, have been assigned. Although such an abbreviation exists for the United States (us), it is more common for a site in the United States to use a specialized top-level domain such as edu (educational institution), gov (government), or mil (military) or one of the four domains designated for open registration worldwide, com (commercial), int (international), net (network), or org (organization). In 2000 seven additional top-level domains (aero, biz, coop, info, museum, name, and pro) were approved for worldwide use, and other domains have since been added. An Internet address is translated into an IP address by a domain-name server, a program running on an Internet-connected computer.\n\nThe Internet evolved from a secret feasibility study conceived by the U.S. Dept. of Defense in 1969 to test methods of enabling computer networks to survive military attacks, by means of the dynamic rerouting of messages. As the ARPAnet (Advanced Research Projects Agency network), it began by connecting three networks in California with one in Utah–

We're getting closer to this kind of solution.  Host-based Intrusion Prevention Systems (HIPS) are able to identify virus-like behavior and prevent it.  This includes things like deleting files, writing files to certain folders, copying files, performing certain actions in memory, etc.  HIPS can also block certain types of network traffic.  This is an emerging technology; and it's far from perfect.  But it's a move in the right direction.  Some day our computers will recognize attack behavior and kill the malware causing it.

Remote objects can give a program almost unlimited power over the Internet, but most firewalls block non-HTTP requests. SOAP, an XML-based protocol, gets around this limitation to provide intraprocess communication across machines.\n\nGo here for more information - http://www.microsoft.com/Mind/0100/soap/soap.asp

Well, in my opinion, we had/have platform independence with Java as well as many older and newer technologies designed for the Internet and Intranet environments.  While platform independence is a boon to the networked world and not a bad thing elsewhere, it is not a gut wrenching requirement for many applications on many platforms.  I think that part of the trouble lies simply with the IT community's unwillingness to concede that it is nice where you can get it, but won't stop computers in other non-networked environments (embedded platforms, stand alone workstations, point of sale terminals and high end mainframes or super computers, etc.) from running applications made with less portable languages and compilers.  In other words, people tend to use what they want in certain platforms and as long as it works it stays that way.  So, I'd say it has done as much as it has been called to do and will do more when it is called to do that.
