Database on 1 unix box, CE on another...

Hey,

I have all components of CE (barring the APS, which is on NT) installed on a Solaris server, which for the sake of argument we'll call ServerA. The database which Crystal Reports queries is on another server, which - no points for imagination - we'll christen ServerB.

Once the reports are promoted to Crystal Enterprise, there will no doubt follow errors like "Can't find DLL" or "Can't open SQL Server" because the database is on a completely seperate box to Enterprise.

What modifications need to be applied to ServerA in order to allow it to schedule objects which point at a database on a different platform?

Thanks for your time,

Naith
 
Just an install of the relevant open client, and adding the CE variables to the Crystal user's .profile/.kshrc/.cshrc

Should have checked out the obvious solution before bothering you good people.

Thanks for your time.
