Web browser access to NAV

adealuko

Kindly help on how to implement an http.NET interface for Dynamics-NAV.

providing log-on through web browser (over the internet). Terminal Services option has been struck out.

If you cannot use Terminal Server, you can try to use Citrix with their Presentation Server...

The client would not consider Citrix as an option.

Thanks.

Does it have to be through a browser? Or can using VPN or RDP do the trick?

adealuko

we're looking at a browser for cost effectiveness, the infrastructural cost for VPN will be enormous

OK, what is "enormous"? I thought it was a quite cheap solution .

If Citrix is to expensive, may be Jetro Cockpit Server is an option? (sorry Denster)

Building your own web interface into NAV will cost more than the hardware for remote access. There is no standard way to do this. There are 3rd party products, but for those you will also have to set up hardware to accommodate the website.

and probably pay a lot of money for the product (license) as well ...

VPN too expensive?

Perhaps, if you can provide your customer's budget for doing this we can offer more economical solution for your customer.

Free is not a budget.

Unfortunately in some people will disagree with that statement :shock:

Decent VPN's need not be expensive these days. If you are affording the original license and yearly maintenance fees, you can certainly spend an extra <$500 on a VPN. Linksys makes some equipment in this SOHO space, and SonicWall might also have something at that price point.
