Wise Package Studio Getting Started Guide
You can use either SQL Server or Windows NT authentication.
Environment
Client users have local NT
accounts.
Client users have a domain
account on the SQL server, and
have read and write permissions.
If you have installed SQL Server or SQL Server Express with NT authentication only, the
Wise Task Manager, which manages operations on the Wise Package Studio server, will
not work. Therefore, during the Wise Package Studio database configuration, the
authentication method is changed to mixed mode (NT and SQL). If you have any
questions about how this change affects SQL Server security, ask your database
administrator.
(Quality Assurance module only.) For best results with the Preflight Deployment feature,
use Windows NT authentication for the Wise Services database.
This documentation assumes that you are proficient in the use of the Windows operating
system. If you need help using the operating system, consult its user documentation.
