Tuesday, November 10, 2009 8:08 PMHi,
We are planning to install Project Server 2007. For this we want to use existing SQL server instance which already have MOSSS 2007 databases.
While going through the documentation, I found the Surface area configuration as below for Project server from the link http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc197479.aspx
Select Local and Remote Connections, select Using TCP/IP only, and then click OK
But for our existing SQL Server instance for MOSS 2007, has the surface Area configuration as below from the link http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc263187.aspx
Select Local and Remote Connections, select Using both TCP/IP and named pipes, and then click OK
So for MOSS 2007, its using both TCP/IP and named pipes where as for Project Server 2007, it should be TCP/IP only.
My question is: Can we use this existing SQL Server instance which has MOSS 2007 databases, for Project server 2007 databases having Surface Area configuration, both TCP/IP and named pipes?
Does Project Server 2007 MUST require TCP/IP only as Surface Area configuration?
please clarify me
thanks

Yes you can. It is normal to have both MOSS and Project Server databases in the same instance. I am not sure why the discrepancy between the surface area settings.
This forum is really for 2010 questions there are other newsgroups for 2007 questions.

Saturday, November 14, 2009 9:15 PMModeratorHello Samnalla,
There are not any MSDN forums, however there are newsgroups for Project Server 2007. See:
http://www.microsoft.com/office/community/en-us/default.mspx?dg=microsoft.public.project.server&lang=en&cr=US
If you are using a newsreader, the newsgroup can also be accessed through msnews.microsoft.com and the newsgroup name is microsoft.public.project.server.
I hope this helps.
