Programing for the LAN - Help
Hi,
I never programed for lan , I dont know much about how LAN works.
Now I have a project in which users of a LAN should be able to log in an application
running on the Administrator machine.
Do I need to use server-client method ,or is it possible that users on other machines
are able to use the same application that is on the main machine?
So can you guys point me to the right direction, like what i need to learn (topics)?
Sorry for the poor english.

You can consider to use web application instead, use PHP + MySQL.

For LAN, you don't really need to think much about security, for Internet, you do. And usually to access to the internet you need to go pass a firewall or proxy, so your application may need to consider this situation. For instance, Windows Live Messenger can work behind a firewall using web-proxy.
