Build an enterprise application for a customer with aprox. 100 Clients ???

HI!!!

If you would happen to get the chance to build an enterprise application
for a customer with aprox. 100 Clients (…and increasing) which technology
and architecture would you choose. The security policy is pretty strong
so we would have actually only port 80 available. Besides that no deployment
effort on client side is desirable. There is a 100Mbit LAN and this new
application would be deployed on the intranet (internal network).
The GUI of this application should be very rich and fast like win32 applications.
What would you propose in order to fulfil those requirements.

It is an enterprise app… so inputing data, printing invoices,
packing lists, reporting, etc
Clients are win xp machines It processes data on the server mainly,
the presentation is on the clients Data is stored in a database
100Mbit has to do with the access speed to the backbone resources
from clients.(only port 80)

Any hints, links and ideas will be highly appreciated

php and mysql.
Control user access through sessions and use different stylesheets for screen presentation and printing/reporting.

Not to be rude but if you are asking these kinds of questions then IMO that you are not qualified or have the skill set to meet the clients needs.

This in the end would do both you and the client damage from a product that was delivered that didnt meet the clients needs.

I agree with Tony. If you should have to ask such questions, then it is better if you outsource the project to a better suited company or indiviudal.
