Setting up Database Connection in OrthoNet

Challenge

Ortho2 ViewPoint requires each user individually configure connection to database server before using Ortho2 ViewPoint.

Cause

Ortho2's database has moved to a new server causing users to update their OrthoNet settings to point to the correct server.   If you've used Ortho2 ViewPoint on a computer before, you'll need to update the Server Name setting in OrthoNet, if you've never used a computer you'll need to configure OrthoNet's settings.
