A client had a similar problem with some taxi card management software. As fast as we got it working, they'd release a new version and part or all of the web application would stop working. They ended up using a standalone PC, with direct internet connection, as there were only 2 users, and about an hours usage / week this was workable. If it was a main stream application, this definately would not cut it. ________________________________ From: isalist-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx on behalf of Thor (Hammer of God) Sent: Fri 25/Aug/2006 04:15 To: isalist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [isalist] Re: "Custom" JAVA apps http://www.ISAserver.org ------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for the infoz....
