This Week: In the forums
>> Sign-on service doesn't start
"Makassar" was working with Client Access and suddenly it terminated. He was able to get all of the other services started, except for the sign-on service. He tried to start it manually but no luck. "RMalloy" was on hand to offer some help.

>> Forcing program termination
"Stoogenut" writes, "We have menu applications that nest quite deep. Is there a method to force termination of an application from deep within the nest, rather than backing out one screen at a time or reprogramming each application to avoid F12(prev)-F12-F12-F12-F3(exit)?" Do you know of a way?

>> Automating CPSPLF in CL
"Le2004" wondered how to go about automating the copying of a print file to a PF file. Fortunately, "JTaylor" knew just what to do.

Tip of the Week:
The Lazy Coder: Find your iSeries using a DNS or name server
by Andrew Borts

So you need to give people access to your iSeries. By following these five steps, you can configure a name server that EVERYTHING in your network can use. And when you need to change IP addresses for ANY reason, you change it in your DNS server and you're done. It resolves the IP address for the PCs, so you change this in ONE SPOT, not many. How's that for being LAZY?
