Forum OpenACS Q&A: Re: database and aolserver on different machines - how to configure nsd.tcl

Hello Jay,

Depends on what database you are using ... With Oracle you just have to put the SID of the database you want to connect to in the parameter ns_param datasource {} or if you are using PostgreSQL, the same parameter looks like ns_param datasource ${db_host}:${db_port}:${db_name} which should be self-explanatory.

Hope this helps.
