2.BCM 2003 server (share) & BCM 2007 client compatibility

Hi,

I have just had a very frustrating day.

So far I have learned that BCM 2003 uses TCP port 56183 and that BCM 2007 
uses TCP port 5356.

I have also discovered that BCM 2007 is hard coded to use port 5356.  
Whenever I attempt to connect BCM 2007 to a 2003 shared database it reports 
that it cannot connect.  However, I can connect without problems using the 
osql command and I can query the data successfully.

If I force BCM 2007 client to use port 56183 it connects but then it cannot 
see the database.  ie, it will not allow me to pick the 2003 database from 
the drop down list. 

All other 2003 clients connect and work seamlessly, but we have just 
acquired 2 x XP PCs with office 2007 & BCM 2007.

I guess I already know the answer, but does anyone else have this problem?  
Maybe someone might have a solution?

Thank you,
Storkeye

3.Connecting to BCM 2010 Shared DB on SBS 08 Server

Hi,
I am trying to upgrade the BCM from 2007 and have he following issue.
The tool works fine creates the DB, restores the 2007 data an upgrades the 
schema.
The uisers have been given access.

However the SQL Express 2008 shows a region on US English and the clients 
are UK(British) English.  So the connect database is gryed out as the error 
message indicates cannot connect to data with a different region.

I have tried changing the database language to British but the clients still 
cannot connect to the server to use BCM 2010 data.

How can this be resolved as this did not happen with 2007.  I am using teh 
full release versions.

4.Outlook 2003 Client Access from External Sources to SBS Server

Hi,

We have a SBS Server - Premium Edition running on our network, I need
to allow users from Extrernal (Internet) sources to be able to connect
to my server (running Exchange 2003 and ISA 2004) via their Outlook
Clients. How can I do that, and what all I setups I do need to do ?

I have seen this article and understand what access rules do I need to
do on ISA, but did not get what all setups,if any, do I need to do on
DNS ?

Please assist.

5.EXACTLY what happens when a domain user is granted access to shared BCM db

My goal is to share business contacts company-wide and integrate those
contacts into our production database.

Everything worked great for me (the developer) but now I can't give
access to other users

Procedure:

1) Installed BCM on an XP machine under our domain admin username
2) Shared the database and added myselft as a user with access
3) Copied the BCM database from the MSDE instance to a SQL2000 instance
on a SBS machine
4) Installed BCM on my XP machine
5) Edited my XP machine's registry to point to the new SQL 2000
instance name on port 1433
6) Selected Shared database on my machine and connected to the SQL 2000
db fine
7) Uninstalled BCM and MSDE from the original machine
8) Uninstalled MSDE from my machine and everything is still fine
9) Used the BCM contact tables to drive our full size production
database
10) Installed BCM on another XP machine, edited it's registry
11) Attempted to connect to same SQL 2000 instance on new machine, but
error is returned saying make sure BCM is running that the DB is
shared, etc.

Now, I'm assuming that if I had granted all domain users access to the
shared db on the original XP machine when I did my own name everything
would be ok.

The problem is I can no longer use the "Share Database" menu selection
in my copy of Outlook because it is setup as a shared database client.

Which brings me to the question in the subject: When you select "share
database" inside Outlook and add users what is happening there?  I need
to replicate it without the use of Outlook and I can't figure it out.

I've added the domain user in question as a login for SQL 2000 and a
user of the BCM database with the same roles as my (working) name.

No firewall is running on the server (even if it was I have access on
the same port from a different machine) 

Any ideas?
