SourceOffSite Server

The SourceOffSite Server is written in C# and requires the Microsoft .NET 1.1 framework.

The SourceOffSite Server does not necessarily need to be installed on the machine where the Visual SourceSafe database resides. It can be installed on a different machine from the one hosting the VSS database, as long as they are both on the same LAN. However, the SourceOffSite Server does use the VSS Automation component (APIs), so the VSS Client component must be installed on the server machine hosting the SourceOffSite Server. Installing the VSS Client also installs the VSS APIs.
