The way I handle this one is to install RBase of both varieties on the server and to put the ini and cfg files in their native directories. If I need to identify the user's machine I make sure that the machines are named and pick up the names via an environment variable. If I need to identify the user I have them log in with a password. This makes adding new users a snap and you don't have to worry about cfg files getting lost in the shuffle when machines are changed. ======================================= At 10:55 PM 2/20/2002 -0500, you wrote: >Hi all, > >If you need to put Rbase for DOS and Rbase for Windows on the same computer, >what do you do with the RBASE.CFG files?
