I am able to connect and map a drive on the remote server to my computer. I
run a program, the database is on the server, then I get a Reserved error
(-5016), but I am able to continue.


What is Reserved error (-5016)?

Thanks.
 
I suspect it is an error relating to whatever application (the database??)
you are running at the time the message appears.

It is almost always a mistake to run an application locally, with the data
across a slow link from the machine on which the app is running.

Can you give a little more detail? Why not run the program on the same
machine the database is on, or at least on the same LAN?
 
Thank you for your response. The error only occurs when accessing the
database via VPN. It does not occur at the LAN level.
