Remote Access of Database
Our university intends to implement the remote access service for the benefit of the students. although our e databases can be accessed in intranet only i want those to make accessible remotely. How should i proceed? Can some one name the good remote access providers? What are the issues we should concern about while implementing the service? Please help me in this regard.

You can use any of the VPN software or there are software like Shiboluth which can be used for remote access.

Dear Kankana
Please ask your system admin/network admin to make the server accessible by setting global IP to that which will route the link to the database (library database server).
I don't think VPN will help you in this regard. However my knowledge is limited.
In my case, our computer centre did the setting for it , as they are maintaining the campus network and website.
Now it is accessible over internet.

Dear Ms. Kankana B. Badan,
In case the online databases you are subscribing to, are IP encrypted and you want your members can access it beyond campus, the easyproxy, a product marketed by Informatics India is suitable.As I understand the cost is around Rs. One Lakh.
As I understand Sri Abhishek Paul (Mobile: 09674000092) of Informatics India looks after it in East & North East India.
However, as I presume several other publishing agencies also have similar tools.
Sincerely,
Siddhartha S. Ray, Calcutta
