Database configuration

Selecting the database

You need a Microsoft SQL Server to use NoSpamProxy. You can use either Microsoft SQL Express or Microsoft Server Standard/Enterprise. See System requirements.

NOTE: If you use Microsoft SQL Server Express and update to version 14 or higher of NoSpamProxy Server, the utilisation of the database used must not exceed 70 percent (7 GB).

Login credentials

We require two types of credentials:

Information for setting up the database This information is only required during installation to initially set up the database.

Information for access during operation This information is needed so that NoSpamProxy can access the database during operation.

NOTE: Click Recheck access to check the database configuration after you have made changes.

Setting up database permissions

Please refer to the notes under How to set up database permissions.
