Is it possible to extract RS installation credentials

Have spent quite some time setting up an eval version of RS featuring

access to both an SQL Server and Analysis Services. Eventually i got it

running smooth. The issues where setting the accounts during

installation of RS in a combination that worked for my situation.

Now the problem: RS eval expired so i am not able to inspect any

settings and the RSReportServer.config file has encrypted values and

the rsconfig utility can only set values in the config file. Moment 22.

Is there anyway i can extract installation settings from the config

file so i can repeat the installation with a licensed version of RS?

No.

Only what you can see in the config files. The encrypted content is not accessible.

If you want to know the service accounts, check the Windows and Web services through the service control panel applet or through the IIS Manager plugin.

Is IIS always required for replication?

I would like to take advantage of either Merge or RDA replication over HTTP, but would like to avoid setting up IIS.

Is IIS always required to support connectivity for SQL Server Mobile replication back to a desktop SQL Server database?

Thanks, Tim

Yes IIS is very much required for Merge or RDA with SQL Server. However, setting up IIS is not a big thing as we have a "Configure Web Synchronization" wizard that is very helpful for you in this regard.

1) What is your backend database?

2) Can I know what is the problem in moving to Win XP Professional Edition?

|||1) To replace synchronisation between Access/PocketAccess (not more supported with WM5), we use know a MSDE database (on PC) with a SQL Server CE 2.0 database (on PocketPC). The replication work fine on Windows XP Pro, but on Windows XP Home there is no IIS to do the replication.

2) Our customer have Windows XP Home Edition. I'm ok with you that's not very "professional", but we can't tell to our customer : "Hey guys, you must move your forty PC to Windows XP Pro, because our software don't run on XP Home". They will say us "bye bye".

And they have already some old PocketPC (before WM5) with this application installed and it works with XP Home ... that's a big problem for us.

Thanks for helping us

|||I have heard that we can synchronize using ActiveSync is it correct or not, because on Online Book I read we can synchronize using IIS. I need to synchronize my database on Pocket PC to my Desktop PC without using IIS (if we have the cradle why we need access to internet from Pocket PC).

And if synchronized only can work with IIS than use the old way try to send each data by client server application. Its a silly things, but thats the only way if we can only synchronize using IIS.
