If you click Next rather than Finish on the first page of the database connection wizard, the wizard will start to prompt you for connection information. The first such page is shown below:
This page presents options to load a stock database, which are predefined databases that contain data, forms and so forth. Rekall comes packaged with some (hopefully) growing number of these. Selecting Stock databases in the upper combobox will show database details below; the bottom combobox will show the databases avaialble. Alternatively, stock databases can be loaded from remote webservers. If you have an appropriate URL, enter this in the upper combobox (which is editable) and click the Fetch button. Note that once a stock database is downloaded and installed, you will be free to use or modify it as you see fit.
If you do find a stock database that looks interesting or useful then some of the remaining pages of the connection wizard may not appear or may be modified, however progress through the pages is broadly the same. If you do not want a stock database, make sure that the upper combobox shows Empty database.
The following pages prompt for various information, such as the directory and name for the Rekall database file, whether forms and reports should be stored in the server database or in the file system, and server database access information.
When it has sufficient information, the wizard will set up the Rekall database file with the appropriate information. If you have selected a stock database, then it will be loaded (and may take a little time if it is being fetched from a remote web server).
By the way, if you want to try for fame and fortune (or simply think that you have a database worthy of public exposure) then is is fairly easy to package it up and to place it on a webserver for other people to access. See the sections of this manual on the database exporter and importer for details.
