ArgusMessenger is restricted to running on the same machine as the database for the following reasons:

1. ArgusMessenger supports Archiving and Restoring which require the Interbase program gbak. The program cannot be called using SQL, and must be run on the same machine as the Interbase database server.

2. ArgusMessenger is meant to set up and run services which run in the background. These services run on the machine on which they were configured. Since the PKI store which stores your private key is only created on the hard drive of the server machine, the service needs to be configured on the same machine.

We will put a new command line argument in ArgusMessenger which will allow database login to a remote host. This feature will not be turned on by default.

I installed Argus yesterday and ran into a "problem", which the help desk could not solve yet but they will ring me back - maybe the people on the mailing list are even quicker?

I run a dedicated Firebird SQL server on a headless machine. It is set up for self-replication, automated backups, and has a replacement clone. So this is where the database is going to reside, end of discussion.

However, Argus GUI insists on having the database on "localhost", and I haven't been able to find the configuration option where to change it yet, nor was the help desk able to help me yet

Anybody any ideas where Argus hides this configuration detail?
