    The beta2 DVD was released in June, and is the 'official' best way to get everything running together. Anything else is a CTP (community technology preview), which doesn't guarantee a build quality of a beta, but may showcase functionality not included in beta2. I would not use any CTP pre june, and only use the post june ones if you really want to see the changes (and ideally in a virtual machine).

    You can get more info on the CTP's and getting combinations to work together @ http://channel9.msdn.com/ctpmadness/

    eyoo cathal,

    thanks a lot for your fast and informative answer....
    well i read the the june ctp pf vstfs is only workin with april ctp pf sql....

    but your info makes me sure that it should work or at least worked on some places already.... *** so i have to search for a new possible error source, *** but would have been to cheap in that way .... :-)

    anyway have a great day...

    massive greetings from austria
