Accessing MS Access Db On Remote Server??

Hi Gang

I have IIS5 running on a Win 2000 server that hosts our asp
applications. I'm creating a new application on this server but it
needs to access an Access database on another Win 2003 server. In the
asp how do I connect to the database on the remote server? Please
help.

Unfortunately this does not help me. :( I am a newbie to this. I need
to know exactly what to put in the asp code and well as how to set up
the IIS server to access the remote server's database.

Thanks

That article has the information you need. However, if you need more
detailed help we will need to know the exact configuration of the servers?

Are they on the same LAN? Are they in the same domain? If on a LAN is the
database in a shared directory already (can you see it and open it from
Windows Explorer from the web-server)?
