Internet access to Quick Books?

Hello Fellow Geeks,

I have been banging my head against the wall (because I am a NOOB no doubt) – the situation is I have purchased a dedicated server from APluse.(there support is weak) and I am attempting to use it to serve up Quick Books.
Now that I have gotten in this far it looks like there is not an easy way to have QB sit server side and then have users access files from there location.
QB sells a remote access package via web-ex. If I use this why have a server?
Is there anyway to configure QB to behave in the manner that I had hoped? IS there a better choice of software?
Please, any advice?

 

I found some info at the support site for QuickBooks that should help you (hopefully you read it before embarking on what you did): http://www.quickbooks.com/support/networking/

 

Yes, I was at least that far ahead of the curve – what I am confused by is the mechanics that QB is going to retrieve information.
It really looks like VPN – is the ticket. Now I just have to figure out how to work that beast.

 

QuickBooks Forums is a very good source of help on QuickBooks questions.

 

Thank you -
