:idea: K2.net requires Microsoft SQL Server 2000 or MSDBE 2000 for its data store. Typically, a SQL Server 2000 Standard should do. If the SQL Server needs to be clustered for high availability, then SQL Server 2000 Enterprise is required.

If the organization is going to have less than 50 concurrent connections to K2.net Server, MSDBE 2000 will be sufficient to support that. K2.net Server can use and run on MSDBE 2000 for smaller implementations with no clustering.

Furthermore, at this stage the K2.net Server installs only make use of 'SQL Authentication', however the K2.net Server supports a SQL Server running in either 'SQL Authentication' or 'Integrated Authentication'.

In order to convert a K2.net Server installation to run on a SQL Server in Integrated Authentication mode, please follow the steps detailled in this document:

Running K2.net Server on a SQL Server with Integrated Authentication

Furthermore, with the upcoming Service Pack release, the K2.net Server Installs support Integrated Authentication, so this document will then no longer be necessary.

Note that SP3 or later on SQL Server 2000 is also required.
