E.1 Channel Requirements
Before you set up a Microsoft SQL Server database for use
with Novell Audit, be aware of the following requirements:
- Microsoft Windows 2000 or 2003
The Microsoft SQL Server Channel cannot be used on NetWare®,
Linux, or Solaris. Create a JDBC channel to connect to the Microsoft
SQL Server. For more information, see Section 6.7, JDBC.
- Microsoft SQL Server 2000 with latest support pack;
Novell Audit does not support Microsoft SQL Server versions newer
than version 2000.
- If the SQL Server database is not hosted on the
Novell Audit server, install the SQL Server client tools on the
Novell Audit server. The client tools are included with the Microsoft
SQL Server 2000 database installation.
