Important: The sections that follow deal with advanced network settings.
Consult your system administrator to determine the best Remote Data
Access (RDA) setup option for your system.
Before you install the CE Batch application on the batch portable device,
you must determine and configure the Remote Data Access configuration
option for your system. IntelliTrack applications support four basic RDA
configurations.
The required components for Remote Data Access (RDA) can be installed
on your system in various configurations: installing all components on a
single computer, distributing the components between two computers, or
distributing the components on three or more computers.
Depending on the configuration option that you use, IIS, ActiveSync or
Windows Mobile Device Center software, and SQL Express or SQL
Server will operate on your local PC or on a remote PC (server). When set-
ting up Remote Data Access, you will come across various terms. These
terms, as they relate to Remote Data Access (RDA) with your IntelliTrack
system, are defined below.
• Workgroup: a computer grouping intended to help users find printers
and shared folders within a group. In Windows, workgroups do not
offer centralized user accounts or authentication.
1
• Domain: a computer grouping within a network that has a unique
name; the computers share a common directory database. All comput-
ers in the domain are administered as part of a unit with common rules
and procedures.
2
• Domain Name: network domain name that the Batch Portable applica-
tion and database will use to communicate with each other. The
Domain Name is usually assigned by the network administrator. It is
only used in a domain environment.
• Domain Security Account: requires a username and password for log-
ging into IIS Services. It is only used in a domain environment.
• IIS Account: an administrative tool that your handheld device or PDT
uses to communicate with the database.
