MORE INFORMATION
Warning Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly by using Registry Editor or by using another method. These problems might require that you reinstall the operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that these problems can be solved. Modify the registry at your own risk.

When you log on to a computer that is running ProClarity Analytics Server, the ProClarity Desktop Professional client, or the ProClarity Web Professional client, the ProClarity program sets the source properties. The ProClarity program sets the source properties according to the string values of the registry entries in certain registry keys. Some string values of the registry entries are associated with the PTS connection-string properties.

To do this, create a registry entry in the  key for each PTS connection string property, and then set the string value of the registry entry. For example, if you want to force the connection to use the Kerberos protocol, create a registry entry that is named SSPI, and then set the string value of the registry entry to &quot;Kerberos&quot;.

Notes  If you want to modify the PTS connection-string properties for the computer that is running ProClarity Analytics Server, you should create the following key on the server:

 If you want to modify the PTS connection-string properties for the ProClarity Desktop Professional client or for the ProClarity Web Professional client, you should create the following keys on the client:
