I'm not sure what your needs are, but you may want to look into DODS:
Distribution Oceanographic Data System; it's a client-server set-up that
applies to all data types (not just oceanographic).    DODS allows
communication between many different API's (IDL included), and uses the
web to communicate between client and server.  I think you can set it up
so that the server isn't accessible to anyone outside of your group, but
I'm not sure.

We set up an IDL client on a sun sparc solaris 8.  Although it was a pain
to set-up, the rewards are good.
