It was from Mozilla.... can't think of them using closed source... :-)

I just thought of another problem. I am willing to bet dollars to donuts that the activeX stuff you put in is not open source or free software. What do you think?

You are likely to have a problem because the new version of CPRS does not
connect to Linux machines with GTM running VistA at the moment.  There are
those working on it (HINT RICK) who might have it going soon, I hope.
However, there is nothing to stop us from using an older, not one port
version of CPRS and VistA as I am sure someone out there has running (and
if I can figure out where I put my drive with OV3 on it, I might even get
it running.)  I, too, am skeptical of using the VA Demo to test this, but I
have the VA Demo running on my laptop and I could try it. In fact, Joseph,
I can set up a Linux machine for you to try it on if you would like to SSH
in and give it a whirl - but you have to wait until I go home.

You are correct, William was connecting to the VA Demo on a local
windows/cahce server. I remember the strange feeling of irony sitting
with William in KL running CPRS on a Linux machine against a windows
based server and seeing the cover page come up for the first time. Time
to get the Linux version of the demo out of the garage and give it a
whirl....it sure seems soooo tantalizingly close to the "holy grail" :-)
I am sure it would not be major surgery to get a stable version running
in the not too distant future....but then I am not a programmer and an
optimist....a dangerous combination.

This is VERY good sign and hopefully about to get better, but VistA may
well be running on Windows and Cache at the VA so you are likely only
part way there.  I believe William was connecting to a Windows machine
running VistA on Cache.

It works.....or atleast it seems to. Thanks for the port tip Nancy

I fixed the port address and entered the following command in the
/opt/cxoffice/bin directory after downloading and installing the latest
version of Crossover Office, which essentially is Wine:

./wine /mnt/windows/Program\ Files/VistA/CPRS/CPRSChart.exe
CCOW=disable s=CPRSdemo.va.gov p=23

I used the VA demo version of CPRS....from the demo website. The launch
stalled a couple of times....there was an error message which could
only be seen by maximizing the button for the message on my
toolbar....this lead to a request to download Mozilla's Active X
components and install them on my C: drive where Windows lives in my
dual boot machine. It installed the Active X stuff and voila CPRS came
up.

We had gotten as far as the cover sheet before (William Wong, who works
with Molly Cheah) but the system would present any graphics....NOW it
seems to work fine....William thought the issue was the Active X
components.

So.....what is needed next is a really good test drive to see by
several people to see if everything works as it should. The VA Demo is
buggy so it is not clear to me when there is a real bug or its just
the demo at this point.....

My guess is that the combination of the latest version of wine +
whatever bells and whistles they provide for wine with Crossover Office
+ plus the Mozilla Active X stuff did the trick...hopefully it is not
just a false postive alarm....

That is just port 23, the telnet port, not port 23g.

I am trying to run the CPRS client that is downloaded from the VA
demo site.....from Linux using Crossover Office and pointing to the
VA demo server....NOT to Linux or a local install. The parameters
are the ones supplied by the VA..... hmmm it's been a while since I
used that demo so will make sure it still works from Windows.... the
VA may have updated.

If this is the latest CPRS you are using, it will likely not work
with GTM.

Otherwise you can make a shortcut that points at the CPRS you want
to start and include the parameters after it like is described in
the Chapter 2 document on Hardhats under projects.  Just add the
things you have listed to the port and IP.  However, I am
suspicious of p=23g . Where did you find that?

CPRSChart.exe s=192.168.0.102 p=9200

Does anyone know how to pass the parameters CPRS needs to connect
to a server using Crossover Office. For a lark I downloaded the
latest version of CXoffice and ran CPRS with the intention of
pointing it to the online VA demo. The splash screen comes up and
there is what definitely appears to be a network related
error....it can't find the server....it is I am sure because I
couldn't figure out how to pass the parameters CPRS needs to find
the server.  It may not work beyond this point even with the
parameter passed correctly, but it's worth knowing if it does.

The message I get is

Error encountered, Function was: connect
Error was: WASENETUNREACH

the parameters to pass are:

CCOW=disable s=CPRSdemo.va.gov p=23g
