7 * MS SQL Server 6.5
8 * MS SQL Server 7

10 * MS SQL Server 2005
11 * MS SQL Server 2008

13 = Without JTDS-SSO add-on =
14
15 DigDash Enterprise natively supports access to Microsoft SQL Server without using this add-on.
16
17 You can also access a MS SQL Server data base using Windows authentication without this add-on by specifying the domain name, the user login and password on this domain.
18
19 The following condition must be fulfilled:
20
21 * In DigDash Enterprise Administrator, the URL should look like this: jdbc:jtds:sqlserver:~/~/[HOST]/[DATABASE];domain=[DOMAIN]
22 * The « User » and « Password » fields should be specified (no need for the domain in the user field).
23
24 = With JTDS-SSO add-on =
25
26 The JTDS-SSO add-on is useful when you want to use the Windows integrated authentication without specifying a user name or password for the data base user.
27
28 The following conditions must be fulfilled:
29
30 * The DigDash Enterprise server is installed on a Windows computer currently connected to an NT domain
31 * The account used to launch tomcat (or the service account) must have access to the database, or you must specify a different account name and password when configuring the data source.
32
33 = Setting up the JTDS-SSO add-on =
34
35 To allow DigDash Enterprise to access a MS SQL Server data base with Windows authentication, you must do the following:
36
37 1. Extract the folder <DigDash Enterprise install folder>/add-ons/jtds-ss/**jtds-sso.zip** to a folder of your choice on the hard drive. This archive contains a DLL **ntlmauth.dll** for each processor architecture.
38 1. Modify the environnment System variable **Path** by adding the path to the folder containing the **ntlmauth.dll** __corresponding to your processor architecture__.

45 In Active Directory, the service url HTTP/<computername>.<domainename> must be mapped (declared « SPN ») with the domain service account:
