If my site is hosted with an external company web host can I use ASP.NET pages to connect to a MS SQL DB that is on my company's internal server if I had MS SQL installed on it?
My company's server is always on and always connected to the internet.
I have access to my company's server if I need to set anything up on it for this to happen.
There will not be any kind of overload as the site is not accessed constantly.
Also, would this cause any kind of security leak? If so how would I go about plugging this hole?
Our server does have confidential info on it.
Cheers
kefi2927Since you haven't received a reply I'll post my thoughts. As someone who knows little about networking and security I personally would not do this, although it would be possible. Exposing a server to the internet is not something to be taken lightly, and will require diligence in keeping up with patches and security issues.
My 2 cents,
Terri
