hello to all,

the WSS and SPS can have tha same config database?

thanks, damiano

Standalone WSS and SPS 2003 can't be on the same server. So they can't have
the same config database.

But the WSS part of SPS and SPS itself always have the same config database.

thanks mike but
I have not understood that what you mean when you say that the WSS part of
SPS and SPS itself always have the same config database

Damiano,

SPS is built on top of WSS. If you have SPS installed, then you automatically
have WSS as well, but the two are completely bound together. So if SPS is
installed, then there is a part of SPS that is the WSS component, hence the
"WSS part of SPS".

But you could also have WSS by itself without SPS installed, hence the "standalone
WSS".

Got it? ;)

thanks mike,

well,
I have a SPS installed in a server therefore I have also an WSS in the same
server.
I use a remote SQL in another server for content and config database of the
portals.
I have not never created a WSS site. Now I want to create one.
I can/must use the same config database of SPS?

If you are creating a WSS site within that existing copy of SPS 2003 it will
use the same config database.

If you are (which is possible) going to install a copy of WSS (standalone
version) on a new server (and *then* create a site there), then that will
have it's own config database but that (new) config database could be on the
same SQL Server where you have the SPS config database.

I suspect you mean the first case though.

Mike Walsh

yes, is the first case

thanks mike
