@all Guys, another "weird office setup" - there is a new client called Blooming Smiles Dental. Dr Kia.
this office shares the space with another practice. They have a separate servers for each practice but share the pan PC/pan machine. Both offices use Dentrix and Dexis 9. each room has 2 PCs: AIO for Dr Radwan and laptops for Dr. Kia.
And thats where all the wierdness happens.
The other practice uses the server called server2022.radwan.local. "Our" practice uses the server called svr22.dental.local
But the pan PC is on the workgroup and its authenticated to both servers via the credentials manager.
The PAN pc has Dentrix installed for the "other" practice. It is integrated with Dexis (install path is c:\Dexis\ and the DB is located on the server2022.radwan.local machine).
"Our" Dr. Kia also uses Dexis (install path is c:\dexis2\ with the DB located on svr22.dental.local).
Originally, the PAN PC had a stand alone Dexis DB located in D:\DEXIS\DATA\ and ANOTHER DB on the server. I changed it so everything now goes to the server's DB. But since the Dexis license that belong to Dr. Kia did not have the PAN module license, I had to apply dr Radwan' s Dexis lic file.
Please be careful when working with that PAN PC as we do not support Dr Radwan's practice.
Let me know if you have any questions regarding this setup.

@all I just spoke with Dr Kia and she asked me to revert the PAN setup to be back locally on the PAN PC only as she did not like to see the other doc's name in Dexis.
