Hi!!
We have oracle database installed on a server. Our application created in VB is installed on all clients. The reports and executables are also only on the server. To access the database, reports and executables from clients we have registry on each client. Hence the database username and password is also in the registry which we want to avoid for security reasons.
What can be an alternative solution to this?
Or else if we keep the Server's IP address on each client in the registry and try to read the registry of server for username and password our problem is solved. On one will have access to the server. But how do we read registry of the server? We dont want to create Server and Client Proxy components for doing this.
Please help.
Thanks,
Quisar
