Hi...
I've been asked to research how the following would work...
Our client has a MSSQL server running their product databases - we are currently developing a website in PHP which connects and acts as a shop for the product database.
It's all ok on a local server, but how do we then launch the service to the internet? I imagine we get some webspace, and somehow get a static IP address for the MSSQL server on their machines... then from the website use the IP address to connect to the DB and query as normal...
is that how it would work??
I just need some clarification on this!! thanks for ANY info!! :)
