FileMaker over VPN
If you work with FileMaker, we recommend using VPN Tracker’s → Secure
Desktop to connect to your database over VPN. If you prefer, you can also ac-
cess your database directly from FileMaker, if you prefer.
To access a remote database in FileMaker:
‣ Open FileMaker
‣ Choose “File > Open Remote...“
‣ Select “View > Favorite Hosts”
‣ Click “Add“
‣ Host’s Internet Address: Enter the IP address of your FileMaker server (if
you are using remote DNS in VPN Tracker, it is also possible to use the
server’s host name instead)
‣ Favorite Host’s Name (optional): Enter a name for this FileMaker server so
you will recognize it later
‣ Click “Save”
‣ Select a database from the list of available Files and click “Open”
