Networking CLXP

[customer]

The clinicxp is running on a wireless peer to peer network here, we also have a router which controls broadband so there is 2 networks running side by side, does the clinicxp need to run on a peer to peer network or can it run on any network i.e. a workgroup, so i can take the peer to peer out of it and run all thru the router. thanks for you help

Hi David,

I'm afraid that I'm not sure what you mean when you ask if you can "take out the peer to peer network"? If you "take out the network", then how will the computers connect to each other?

In order to use ClinicOffice XP over your network, it requires Windows File Sharing so that you can access the database files from one computer to another.

i.e. if you have a computer called CLINIC1 and a computer called SERVER (which hosts the database) then CLINIC1 needs to be able to access the folder on SERVER which contains the database.

Typically the path would be something like \\SERVER\DATABASE
