Yes, I know, I'm stuck to oldfashioned technology.
But nevertheless:
Here's a Windows XP + Office '03 + BCM working fine for me. Now I
planned to share my contacts with other collegues. I have an
"application server" running the same configuration (XP+03+BMC) which
is part of our backup system. So I decided to run the BCM database
there.
I copied a backup file from my system to this "other" computer and
restored the database. No problem.
Now I asked BCM for sharing this database to other users. BCM showed
up with the assistant explaining, what will happen next. As soon as I
hit OK, the dialogue hangs in the state "Firewall exceptions" (I',
writing from germany, I don't know what the exact writing in english
versions is). The computer is fine, but Oulook is completely dead.
So I decided to configure the exceptions myself. I added the needed
exceptions to the windows firewall, added the "printer and file"
stuff, configured the sql with the networt configuration, but I never
ever managed to contact the database from any other computer (in the
same subnet, btw).
Anyone any further hints for me?
Thank so much for your support and
greeting from rainy germany,
Oliver
