Ah, but using KIDS to move what you mean to move means you always have a
record of what you've installed/changed in production. Better to know =
what
you've changed in production than to change something and forget what it
was!

Indeed.=A0 This seems the most ideal, but I guess there may be =

moving KIDs back and forth would be a sure way to 'forget something' and

Why not create a secure connection so that you can work on the system

Are you talking about VistA on GT.M or Cache (and I would presume
Windows vs. Linux for the latter).
With GT.M, setting up a VistA configuration on one machine and moving it
another would be operationally trivial (you would need to presumably
rename the second machine). That's how I create the OpenVistA SemiVivA
releases. It takes a few minutes and a few shell commands, but that's
all.
Taking a database + routines snapshot of a live (i.e., operational)
VistA machine (which I don't do) would also be pretty straightforward.

What you suggest would be fairly easy if you are using Cache on Windows. I
do not know how easy it would be with GT.M. or Linux.

End of Hardhats-members Digest
My current, shaky installation is under Cache/Windows but I'm planning
on using Linux/GT.M. Unfortunately VPN hasn't proven to be a viable
option, my ISP doesn't provide static IP addresses (at least not at a
price I can justify). My attempts to connect via the leased IP address I
get from IPCONFIG before I leave at night fails, and the next morning I
find that the address has changed. I'm pleased to hear that it is
possible to move the installation. The KIDS method (which I know next to
nothing about) sounds interesting since it seems to allow for a trail of
incremental builds that can be used to abandon failed steps. I'm not
ready to do it yet but I'll ask for help when the time comes.
