Networking

I have a scenario for college. Edinburgh office is expanding and opening a Glasgow office. Edinburgh has a established network with one server. Would i be best to set up Glasgow office the same and what is the best way to link the two networks?

Any help or links would be gratefully appreciated

Cheers

a VPN?

Thanks you very much. That looks like the way to go. I take it the data would be encrypted on its own before being sent or would i need to set this up in the NTFS permissions?

Depends on how much data you want to share between sites, whether you want to share voice and/or video as well as data, (and how much you want to pay).

Have a look at Etherflow - Ethernet Services - Networks - BT Business

Other providers are available.

Simple NTFS file sharing and security between departments. I am told a database in the brief and it looks like it would be customers details in the database.

Also make sure that security is a top priority. Physical and digital.

If need more info drop me a line... I do this stuff with my eyes closed these days.

depending on how technically minded you are, you could do it with iptables (even through a gui --- fwbuilder)
