EUREKA !. I had to set up my windows user using CAPS as "GCS" not "gcs" and VOILA, it works. Thanks so much Dan for your understanding.
Dave From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: RE: jbase 3.4 install Date: Thu, 16 Sep 2010 13:50:53 -0500 I went through control panel>admin tools>computer management>usrs. Selected gcs, properties, Profile, local path button, and typed in C:\usr\gcs , accepted and filed. If I telnet in as gcs (enter password), system drops me on the right folder. I type REMOTE.CMD at the prompt, I get another prompt. If if type GCS, I get my menu. Looks like remote.cmd is not executing automatically. Dave.

How did you define the 'home directory' in the Windows Profile for user 'gcs'? And, where exactly did you define it? What are the contents of your 'remote.cmd' file?

I have my "system" file in c:\usr and the "gcs" item in is set up as: D c:\usr\gcs remote.cmd is in the C:\usr\gcs file If I back up to to c:\usr and type name of my menu program (i.e. "menu"), my system starts. I must still have an env. var screwed up somewhere. Dave.

This now allows system to drop me on the right account (file) i.e I end up in the c:\usr\gcs folder but the remote.cmd is not running. So close I can taste it now. I never used passwords in this manner before, but if I can see my first menu today, I think I might have a drink or two to celebrate. Dave.

I would suggest adding a password to user 'gcs' and see if that works. I do know that there is a Local Security Policy setting to tell Windows that passwords are not required. Is this set on this system? One thing that most people miss when setting this up is to define a 'home directory' for the user in the Windows user's Profile. This 'home directory' is where jBASE drops the user. If there is a 'remote.cmd' file then it is executed.

Dave Date: Thu, 16 Sep 2010 12:22:58 -0400 Subject: Re: jbase 3.4 install From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Since the license service was started before entering the key, it has no idea that a key was installed, hence 'license expired'. I agree that this message is confusing, it should really say 'license missing' or something to that effect. Oh well... Wrt your telnet problem... Is the telnet service started? Is it running on port 23? and is your telnet client set to communicate on port 23? If the Windows telnet service is running then disable it as it would be in direct conflict with jBASE telnet. Do you at least get to a 'login' prompt? That would indicate that telnet is working, and that the user is not yet configured properly.

But why would i get a license expired message, when I installed as "evaluation copy" . Thanks Dan, I'm one step closer to having my system running. Still can't Telnet. Dave. To: [email protected] Did you restart the license service AFTER installing the key?

A few months ago, my xp-pro system got demolished when I attempted to manually fix a virus, and eventually ended up wiping my hard drive. And I really do have enough backups to rebuild. So far I have downloaded SDK 2.0 from MS and installed. I have restored my home directory as "C:\usr, and have the env. var home = C:\usr I have re-installed jbase 3.4.x, and added a couple of my specialized programs to the bin folder. in my system env. variables I have the following items bin C:\Program Files\Microsoft.NET\SDK\v2.0 home C:\usr jbcglobaldir C:\jbase30 jbcreleasedir C:\jbase30 lib C:\Program Files\Microsoft.NET\SDK\v2.0 NAVROOT C:\jbase30\jdp PAth %systemroot%\system32;%systemroot%;%systemroot\system32\Wbem;c:\jbase30\bin;C:\jbase30\jdp\bin;C:\usr\gcs\bin (I added the \usr\gcs\bin ) I think these are all that pertain to jbase. I installed my legit key with jinstallkey However, when I attempt to use jShell, I get a "license expired message" and I cannot telnet in. incorrectAccount Name: gcs Password: Logon failed: unknown user name, password or privilege . I have arrived at my desktop by choosing "administrator" and then attempting to either jshell or telnet from there. So, once again, hat in hand, here I am.
