RE: Aspen and WP70s
Jim, Try installing both the security client and server programs on the 70, then set the ADSA Directory server to localhost. Because of our network topology that's what I had to do since my Aspen server is in its own workgroup and all of the process engineers are on the main company domain.

RE: 70's SERIAL CARD
Stefano, The FoxPage package uses a Digiboard and a Multi-Tech MultiModem to add a modem to an AW/WP 70. The information on the required serial board, cable and APPROXIMATE US list is as follows: P0971SF DigiBoard 4 Port Serial Expansion Card$500.85 P0912SG Cable Cable for Serial Expansion Card $75.00 You can checkout Multitech at www.multitech.com http://www.multitech.com . Their products have been excellent. Just in case you are trying to do what FoxPage does, I'll send you the PSS and manual separately. It might actually save you time and money.

RE: Aspen and WP70s
An except from my book. I hope it helps: Windows NT Preliminary Decisions Before attaching a Windows NT based I/A Series AW or WP to a company network, several decisions must be made: * Should the machine use the standard I/A Series Auto-login facility or should each user login individually? * What services to they need from the network, e.g., access to printers and file servers, individual e-mail? * Should the I/A Series machine to work as part of a domain within the plant? A domain-based solution is appropriate if individual user login is required at the I/A Series workstations. If individual logins are not required, there is probably no benefit to having the machine join the domain. Workgroup Based Solutions If they need access to network drives, the MapNetworks Drive option - right mouse click on My Computer - can be used to access them. When user of the machine tries to map the drive, the server will ask for a username and password. The user name needs to include the user's domain, e.g., FOX_HOU\alex.johnson. After the password has been entered, access to the drive is transparent. If access to network printers is required, clicking on the NetworkNeighborhood icon can lead to finding the desired printer. When the domain that contains the printer is entered, the domain server will prompted for a user name and password. Again, the user name must be entered with the user's domain's name, e.g., FOX_HOU\alex.johnson. After that, access is transparent. If unque user logins are required, but it is not desired to be in a domain, create a new user using standard techniques. Be sure that the new user belongs to the same groups as the user 'fox'. Use the I/A Series control panel and toggle auto login on and off. This will cause the machine to reboot as the currently logged in user. Domain Based Solutions If a domain based solution is desired, the first step is to decide how logins should be handled. The default behavior is to have the machine boot up completely as user fox. If the default user 'fox' is to be retained, yet a domain is to be used, the following must be done to have the machine boot up in a domain: * Open the Network control panel, * Select Identification, * Select Change, * Pick Domain, * Enter the Domain Name. * If this machine isn't already part of the domain, and it won't be, check Create a Computer Account in the Domain, and have your System Administrator enter the required user name and password. Note: Be careful about this. The I/A Series software depends on all of the machines being able to talk to each other. So, it defaults to having them all in the same workgroup. If you change some machines, but not all, nothing good will happen. If individual logins are required along with Domain membership, follow the above steps and log in as that user. Use the I/A Series control panel and toggle auto login on and off. This will cause the machine to reboot as the currently logged in user. Domain as Workgroup Based Solutions Another alternative exists. In this case, the domain name is entered as the workgroup name. In this configuration, the machines can see all domain resources, but they cannot access them without a login. For example, mounting a drive will prompt for a username and password belonging to the domain. This is an interesting compromise because it allows the resources to be accessed without having the machine join the domain.

RE: Aspen and WP70s
If you don't want to have to deal with the ADSA server problems you can install version 2.5.1 or wait for version 4.0 which should have a supported way around the ADSA server.
