I did something really dumb - I had a partition with XP and the XPe toolset
installed, then installed 2000 Server on the same partition (I know, I
know...). Interestingly, I can boot both! But when I boot XP although the
MSDE server is apparently running (icon in system tray is green and blinks
every few seconds) all of the tools (TD, CDM, CD) report that they are
unable to connect to it.
Now, I have 3 questions:
1. Can anyone suggest what I broke that prevents the tools from seeing the
server and what I should do to fix it?
2. Is it possible to install the tools and database on another machine and
then just copy my custom repositories, or do I have to re-import the .sld
files into the new database?
3. Is it possible to install the MSDE server and component database on one
machine and access it with tools installed on another?
Thanks for your insight.
