[RBASE-L] - Re: Form Timer and Hourly backups

[MDRD]

Hi Albert

Lets say I have an Owner password of something like ABC123, but on the 
Unload All Encrypt I use xyz for my password.
Then the user can Restore the DB by entering the xyz password, but if they 
had RBedit could they open the Unload.Dat file then see my Owner password 
and learn all me trade secrets?  LOL

So, I was thinking of Code locking a restore file that would hide the Unload 
password to prevent the above possibility, or am I missing something?

Thanks for all the help
Marc

Hey, Marc - that is a different password just for the file itself.
Substitute your password for the file for the word "password".

Hi Mohammed

Yes my Database has an owner password.  I was going to use the Encryption 
option for the Unload ALL but the user still needs the password to run the 
file (as far as I know).  So, I guess I need to make a codelocked file to 
Run the output file to hide the Unload All password.

I thought about using Reload but I run my app with Staticdb On, so that is 
not an option.  RBase gives us so many cool options it is hard to decide 
which is the best route to take.

Thanks
Marc

Hi Marc
Is your Database owner protected
If yes then the unload all command prodeces a text file which also shows 
the
Ownername and this text file is editable by any text editor
Which may compromise your Ownername

I am working on using the Form Timer to do hourly backups.  I popup a 
Pause
3 with a gauge, Authochk, then Unload All and I noticed that if I am in a
form it stops me from using the form which is OK.  Will this cause a 
problem

if I am running some big command block with several Updates or printing
monthly statements when this fires?

Thanks
Marc
