Background
Small business
2 differeny offices

So i want somekind a online database for printing and organzing client information between offices but i think its going to take me while since im still learning and dont know what sfotware to use. But while i learn, i figured i can install a wiki online and get some collaboration going. I just want a oplace where all workers in the company can write notes and info on clients - since we all work with the same ones.

My question:
Is there like a standard wiki software i can use? Is there anyway i passwork protect it or something so that only my coworkers and i can edit and view info?

Perhaps you should look into setting up an Exchange server and have them connect through a VPN which would enable you to share contacts/calenders/tasks etc.

I have to do it outside of the physical network because of ADMINISTRATIVE RIGHTS......................if you get what i mean.

We dont really need to share tasks and contacts between offices. Each office has exchange, but VPN "needs time to setup" meaning it will never happen. So since i have a personal webserver, im going to do everyhting from there

Yea, if you're going to just be sharing customer info, I would set up a VLAN and an exchange server.
