ADS-Prototype README
====================



1. Introduction
===============

The prototype aims at verifying that a preliminary frontend can communicate
with the database.
Major focus was put on file-upload which could not be estimated in its workload
and seemed a point important to secure.

2. Platform
===========

The prototype is realised using the Microsoft SQL-Server 7.0, Microsoft Internet
Information Server and Microsoft Active Server Pages.

3. Installation
===============

* Copy the respective file to a virtual directory on your server. Make sure an  
  ASP-Application is running on that directory.
* Create the subfolder "Files", where the uploaded images will be stored.
  Run the Database-Script (db_script.sql) on the SQL-Server to create the
  database.
* Install the upload-components on the server. These can be found at
	http://www.aspsmart.com/.
  This is done by typing
  	"regsvr32 aspsmartupload.dll"
  in the command prompt.
* Create database users in the database, provide password and groupID for each
  user.
