Hi Brian, Yes, I copied just all the files in the one directory, preserving the directory structure of course.
My configuration is BOXI on a non mid-tier server with just the mid-tier report server component loaded on the BOXI server. I am able to connect multiple mid-tiers to the one BOXI server. I just create different ODBC data sources for each server. Occasionally I come across some idiosyncrasy or another but it generally works well. We did run into the licensing issue in that we have 10 concurrent users, where 1 named user would probably be better. Good luck with it, Rod On 27/02/2009, Sokol, Brian <bso...@scholastic.com> wrote: > > ** Hi Rod, > > So did you copy all the files from the \bin folder or just the > reportadd.exe file?
