Re: GEMS - Stand alone.



GEMS does not use terminals.  As I stated below GEMS AND THE DATABASE RESIDE ON THE WINDOWS NT MACHINE THAT THE USER IS WORKING ON.

The City of Ottawa election office is 15 miles away from City Hall where the GEMS server is located.  The database is created on a PC in the election's office.  
 
Burlington would like to put their GEMS server in the IT department located in the basement of their City Hall with a terminal for the main user located on the third floor.  Is the main user given an IP address on the City's network to implement GEMS and if so, can other election users get IP addresses as well and work on their own GEMS databases? 
 
GEMS is a single user application.  The GEMS and the databases resides on the WindowsNT machine that the user is working on.  If they want more than one user to run GEMS at the same time they will need to have GEMS installed on multiple machines and each user must work on a different database.
