I can't speak for healthlink but I think you will find its to reduce support headaches. Clients on workstations need permissions to save files on the server and if the client runs as a service, which is desirable, it needs a server login setup to access the share. While this is pretty basic, the IT support is often average and pretty non-responsive, so even when we know what the problem is, As we get error messages that tell us the errors, we cannot get the problem fixed. We (Medical-Objects) have one practice where this has been happening for a week and the IT support/Practice won't respond to Emails etc to try and sort it out. So the non server install becomes a support headache. It all comes down to trying to make the service reliable and not consume excessive support for basic security problems. eg: Here is an example ;-) 20060518033015+1000^EHL7RoutingHTTPForwardException^"EFCreateError:Cannot create file ""Z:\Apps\MDW2\qhps05180330671.ORU"". The system cannot find the path specified" and another: Error is: EFCreateError:Cannot create file "G:\MDW2\SSC12022002737.ORU". The system detected a possible attempt to compromise security. Please ensure that you can contact the server that authenticated you -- Best regards, Andrew mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Andrew McIntyre Buderim Gastroenterology Centre www.buderimgastro.com.au PH: 07 54455055 FAX: 54455047 _______________________________________________ Gpcg_talk mailing list [email protected] http://ozdocit.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gpcg_talk
