Installation issue

Hi,
we are writing an installation routine for our app using .net framework 1.1.
The inst routine has 2 parts: 1 for the server and one for the clients. The
database is MSDE for the small customers and MS SQL server for the big.

1: How can we automaticaly set up the clients so that they are permitted to
start the main program on the server?

2: How can the installation program set up an automatically sheduled
database maintenance with consistency check and recovery?

Regards,
Olav

You need to mimic the steps a "person" sitting in front of the computer
would do, normally an SQL2k DBA would be doing these things.
So, get you an SQL2k DBA, and start from there - this will most likely take
several days to a couple of weeks to get correct.
You'll have to install SQL/MSDE (that will require admin rights).
Configure SQL/MSDE for your application.
Configure and start SQL/MSDE (that will required SYS DBA rights).

As far as users starting the application, they'll need "local" admin rights
on the box where SQL/MSDE is installed, they'll also most likely need SYS
DBA rights to start the appropriate database/related services.
