    1.  

 

Student Computer

Each student computer requires the following hardware and software.

Hardware

The following hardware is required for each student computer:

  • Pentium 166
  • 64 MB of RAM
  • 2-GB hard disk
  • CD-ROM drive
  • Network adapter

    1.  

 

Software

The following software is required for each student computer:

  • Windows NT Server version 4.0 (40-bit version) with SP4
  • SQL Server 7.0
  • SQL Server 6.5 with SP4
  • Internet Explorer 4.01 SP1
    1.  

 

Classroom Configuration

The following configuration and naming conventions are used throughout this course and are required for the hands-on labs:

  • The instructor computer is named instructorx (where x is a number that is unique to the intranet).
  • Each student computer is named serverx (where x is a unique number for each server on the intranet).
  • Each domain is named domainx (where x is a number that is unique to
    the intranet).
  • The password for both the Windows NT administrator account and the SQL Server sa account on the instructor computer is pass1131.

 

The classroom setup script assumes that the Windows NT domain name is domain1131 and the instructor computer name is instructor1131. If the names are different, follow the instructions in this setup guide to edit files to reflect the correct domain and computer names.

    1.  

 

If your classroom is on an intranet, make sure that the numbers that you assign to each student computer, instructor computer, domain, and so on are unique. By providing unique numbers for these, you will avoid inadvertently causing naming conflicts.

Setup Instructions

Use the following procedures to prepare each computer for class.

Before You Begin

You will need to do the following:

  • Read through all setup procedures.
  • Make sure that you have the following compact discs provided with the course materials: Trainer Materials, SQL Server 7.0, and SQL Server 6.5.
