VPN and MS Access DB speed issue

[Guest James Wright]

I have a SBS network with a firewall that handles VPN connections. When users

remote connect to the network they can access files and Exchange just fine

with no speed issues, but there is a MS Access database that's being accessed

and it is so slow you have to wait several mins for windows to come up while

a query completes. Working in this Access database cannot happen over the

VPN because it's so slow. In the office it's fine.....

 

Any advice?
