Based on feedback and questions about using [what I'm calling] the Optimized Separation Model, where the Interface file is located on the client machine of a distributed solution, I've decided to provide an extended look at the implementation of the described system.

Using a method of stripped and default passwords, I explain how to deploy a local interface separation model of solution development. The advantages of this approach have been covered in a previous video, and I must admit that while using the solution over the WAN (wide area network), things have become much speedier for my own solution.

In the past, as I've pointed out, I was not fond of the separation model. While working on the specifics of this solution, I'm finding that the advantages seem to pile up. The few disadvantages of not being able to use a specific technique here and there are diminishing.
