Being a var we don't worry so much about the deployment :) but I have heard high praise for Zenworks.
We setup our ODBC account so the PUBLIC user only has select access. This means "regular" users won't be able to update anything through ODBC. Important if you have some users smart enough to realize that they can connect through Access/Excel. We did this on Windows and discovered that if the user that created the schemas belonged to the administrators group then ALL users that belonged to the administrators group had owner (full) privileges on the schema. We created a new user that we used to create the schemas. Not sure if you will have the same issue with hpux. I'm not sure how well a limited budget and rolling Crystal reports out to 300 users will work ;). hth Colin Alfke Calgary, AB >-----Original Message----- >From: Charlie Rubeor > >We use Unidata 6.0, hpux 11.11, with the Dataworks package. >We have the odbc connections setup, but we only use them >within the computer department, ten users in total.
