Our HIS 2000 setup is described in an earlier post ("HIS 2000 migration", 3/27/2006). In reviewing the HIS 2000 documentation, it's not clear whether or not MSDE 2000 is required in our environment. We do not use host security. There are no HIS clients. All printing is either standard tcp/ip or lpr. I would like to avoid installing MSDE 2000 on the new HIS 2000 server we're going to set up. Is the above suffient info or is additional background needed? Thank for your help. -- Sergio Martin Information Technology Services UT-Austin
I installed HIS 2000 without installing msde 2000. Msde 2000 was not necessary for our environment (no host security). See notes below. I consider the issue closed for our setup. -- Sergio Martin Information Technology Services UT-Austin "Sergio Martin" wrote: > Our HIS 2000 setup is described in an earlier post ("HIS 2000 migration", > 3/27/2006).
