We're currently (re)looking at adding a SQL2005 check (similar to the SQL2000/SQL7 check in SA). Looking at how SQL2005 "works" we won't be able to use SQL DMO in all cases (seems that SQL2005 can only use DMO when in some kind of compatibility mode :-( ), so we will have to use the "new" SQL SMO. This does mean using the .NET 2.0 Framework -> do you see this as a problem? Also from an authentication point of view it can OR use the current logged-in NT user OR use SQL authentication. This means that IF we have such a check for SQL2005 and you want to run SA as service (system account) THEN you will have to use SQL authentication -> is this possible on YOUR SQL2005 installation?
