Re: [U2] UV - Distributed files
Hi Jerry, Actually, I know about multi-data files too... I used to use them on Pick R83, to simulate what Universe later implemented much more cleanly as distributed files. Part numbers dont have to be sequential and dont have to start at 1 ( I didnt know that until I was told quite recently...), but cannot be zero. You could if you wanted to use the whole year as a part number if you wished, so you could have part numbers 2000, 2001, 2002 etc. However, how often are you going to be select just the year 2000 data? It would probably make sense to have a part file for each of the more recent years, and put the rest in a bucket. That way you retain all the advantages of using a distributed file, but minimise the disadvantages cheers, asvin Jerry Banker [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 17/05/2006 15:24 Mail Size: 4382 Please respond to u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org cc Subject [U2] UV - Distributed files Entity Investment Banking Europe - IBEU Since you seem to know a little about distributed (as opposed to multi-data files), I have a question.

RE: [U2] Client interested in using Dynamic Connect with application software written with SBPlus
I have no experience with Dynamic Connect, but I have setup a variety of terminal emulators to work with SB+. The first thing is to configure the page 1 stuff properly, terminal type, width, and depth first. Then the next big thing is to figure out what F3 is sending and get that key mapped. Once that key has been mapped it can be used to map the rest of the keys. Then double back and worry about the graphic characters, text effexts, color, and any other periphery that may need to be addressed. Granted, this is an overly simplified approach and there are always derivatives and issues to work around, but this is the general procedure that has worked best for me personally. -Kevin [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.PrecisOnline.com -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Susan Lynch Sent: Thursday, May 18, 2006 11:09 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] Client interested in using Dynamic Connect with application software written with SBPlus Folks, OK, before anyone asks if I am insane, my first response to the client was in the negative because SB Plus and SBClient are a team - even having different versions can cause odd behaviors, especially in things like downloads and email.

Re: [U2] [UV] Active Directory, RHEL 4 integration and issues with UV
phil walker wrote: Has anyone configured their RHEL 4.0 system to authenticate against their active directory, to hopefully overcome the administration cost of maintaining both Linux and Windows security. If so, what issues did you have with regarding to: a) telnet or ssh connectivity b) samba connectivity c) UniObjects connectivity d) NFS or anything else... We are running RHEL 3.0 and using AD authentication for ssh, telnet, ftp, and samba. I set this up when we migrated UV from IRIX to RH in Nov. '04, and it's been working flawlessly. It's made password administration a non-issue. The only major caveat is that should the winbind daemon ever die or hang, users can't log in. This doesn't happen very often, but does happen occasionally. I'm running the following script from cron every minute to eliminate the problem: #!/bin/sh # # JAH - restart winbind if it dies # 07-15-04 # THISHOST=`hostname` [EMAIL PROTECTED] WB_STATUS=`/etc/init.d/winbind status | grep running` if [ $WB_STATUS = ]; then /etc/init.d/winbind restart ( echo winbindd hung and was restarted on server $THISHOST: echo $WB_STATUS ) | mail -s $THISHOST: winbindd restart $SYSADMIN fi Also, keep in mind that linux/UV is case sensitive, where Windows/AD is not. If you are doing anything in UV based on login name you may have problems if your Windows user logins aren't created with the case convention you expect. We have always used uppercase only for the UV server logins and have to be very careful to always use uppercase when we add a new user to AD. Users can still log into the UV server using lower case for their login name, but once they're in, winbind reports their logins to the OS with the case in which they were originally created. If a user is mistakenly set up using the wrong case, you can still correct the problem by deleting them from AD and recreating them correctly. The only other caveat I can think of is that you need to be very careful during the initial setup to make sure you don't lock yourself out of your server. If you're going to be setting up both telnet and ssh, get one working and tested first, then set up the other. I'm not using winbind for UOJ authentication because we always use the same OS level login for UOJ, then authenticate the user supplied name and password in a BP via arguments. I don't think I could do UOJ authentication via AD though, because I'm relying on PAM, which UOJ doesn't use. AFAIK you can do samba/winbind/AD integration without using PAM, but I haven't explored this.

Re: [U2] Client interested in using Dynamic Connect
Bill, the problem is that everything we do is very SB-dependent. It is not just the screens. We download accounting files to the client PC using the SB file transfer subroutine calls, we email invoices using the SB calls to the TU.MAPI logic, etc. However, your point about the correct emulation mode is interesting. The client now tells me that the only thing (that she has tested) that is not working for her is the F5 key. I checked the Dynamic Connect manual and the Function keys in general mapped exactly to the SB key definitions. The F5 key appears to be the one key that was not mapped, according to the documentation - I will send her directions for mapping that key the way that SB Client has it mapped and see if she can use Dynamic Connect successfully.

Phil, On 5/18/06, phil walker [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Has anyone configured their RHEL 4.0 system to authenticate against their active directory, to hopefully overcome the administration cost of maintaining both Linux and Windows security. Similar response to John. We are currently on RHEL2.1 and still use the pam smb module to validate against the AD server. This works well for simple stuff but pamsmb is now deprecated in favour of winbind. a) telnet or ssh connectivity It just works. Users that don't exist on the AD controller still need a local password in /etc/shadow. b) samba connectivity No problems - this has it built-in anyway which is where the original pamsmb came from. c) UniObjects connectivity Unless you can do as John suggested and get winbind working without pam you will need to maintain these users locally (assuming this works at all). One idea I had but never followed up was using the password chat function in Samba. As part of the user's windows login script, their PC would map a samba drive. Samba on the linux server would use the samba password chat function to set their linux password to the password sent through to samba when the drive was mapped. The login script would then unmap the drive. This means their linux password would be synched to the windows one whenever they logged into the pc. Nice idea in theory but I've not tried to make it work. Personally I think IBM claiming that UD is ported to RHEL or linux generally and not supporting PAM is a bit suspect. d) NFS or anything else... The only other issue I can think of is handling different windows domains. If a user that belongs to a different windows domain wants to log into your linux server, the authentication service has to know about the other domain. Pamsmb doesn't do this AFAIK, no idea about winbind. I am currently planning our RHEL4 upgrade and have yet to decide the final way we would do it. I was pretty much thinking winbind would be the answer but our Linux support people (Datacom Auckland) are suggesting an openLDAP based approach.

[U2] Client interested in using Dynamic Connect with application software written with SBPlus
This is a subject near and dear to my heart. I have worked closely with the folks behind both Dynamic Connect and Accuterm to create usable terminal definitions when using SB+ in Character mode. Neither can be used with SB+ in SB's own GUI mode, although you can do some stuff with the GUI functionality of both programs. I don't think that makes sense in this case as you are talking about an end-user company that I can't imagine is interested in re-writing a lot of your front end. Dynamic Connect comes with a couple of special features that make it more SB+ compatible, although I've had trouble with F5 that I couldn't overcome before, too. You can get the F5 to work by use Ctrl-F and then 5 (like in DEFAULT TERM mode). But be sure to open the configuration page of Dynamic Connect and click-and-hold SB_KEYS and CONTROL_KEYS. (I'm sorry I don't remember exactly how to open that window -- someone else?) I have customers using an adds configuration, Wyse configurations and ansi/vt100/vt220 emulations. None are as perfect as I would like, but I think things go better with Wyse. Note that if you have stuff that is automatically downloading and that sort of thing, it will absolutely fail if SBClient is not at the desktop. Unless you want to rewrite it for DC's download stuff. HOWEVER you could put one copy of SBClient in, for the person who would do that sort of stuff, and the others could still use dynamic connect. I find that there are a lot of variables in the mix -- the platform, what env var is being exported by unix, all kinds of things that make a pat answer impossible, but I set the DC side to an emulation that I like, take a copy of the host side /TERM.DEFN item that I like the best and then tweak it until it is as close as it can get. I'm going to tell you -- this is my least favorite thing about SB.

RE: [U2] Client interested in using Dynamic Connect with application software written with SBPlus
I use Dynamic Connect in preference to SBClient. I have NO issues with it using it against SB+/UV in VT220 mode. It is less powerful than say, bNettermb (another well-loved emulator I have used) but it is free and quite serviceable for the price! As others have mentioned, it wonbt do SB+ downloads, smart client, tu.xxx routines and their ilk but it does have some SB+ smarts for printing boxes and the like. Setup: In SB+ in the terminal definition screen (/TERM.DEFN), start by creating a new emulation by copying one of the Wintegrate emulations supplied with SB+. Make sure the OE Term type is vt220 and PC Terminal type is set to 2 (aka Termite mode). This will give you a good colour emulation right off the bat. In the Setup /Terminal dialog of DC make sure that you have the sb and sb_keys extensions highlighted. Cheers.

[U2] [UD] ON.ABORT
I'm running UD 7.1 on Windows 2003 and am trying to use the ON.ABORT command to prevent user access to ECL. According to the UD Commands Reference manual: The ECL ON.ABORT command identifies a command that UniData executes when a UniBasic program aborts. command may be an ECL command, a paragraph, or a directly or globally cataloged UniBasic program. This setting remains in effect until you clear it with the CLEAR.ONABORT command. Reading the UD Windows Admin manual, the following note is made: Note: You can also use the ECL ON.ABORT command to prevent users from accessing the ECL or MS-DOS prompt. ON.ABORT defines a paragraph that executes whenever a UniBasic program aborts. See the UniData Commands Reference for information about ON.ABORT. If I set ON.ABORT, in the login paragraph, to execute a BASIC main menu program, then press [Ctrl]+C to break out of the main menu, then enter END at the ! debug prompt, I end up at the ECL prompt. I thought the command specified by the ON.ABORT command was supposed to execute (the main menu program). So, how does one keep anyone from getting to ECL by any means? As always, thanks.

According to the UD Commands Reference manual: The ECL ON.ABORT command identifies a command that UniData executes when a UniBasic program aborts. command may be an ECL command, a paragraph, or a directly or globally cataloged UniBasic program. This setting remains in effect until you clear it with the CLEAR.ONABORT command. Reading the UD Windows Admin manual, the following note is made: Note: You can also use the ECL ON.ABORT command to prevent users from accessing the ECL or MS-DOS prompt.

Re: [U2] Client interested in using Dynamic Connect with application software written with SBPlus
Thank you, everyone, for the help on this - as always, the people in this group are a tremendous resource! I will work with the client and let you know how things go! Susan Lynch F. W. Davison Company, Inc. - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Sent: Thursday, May 18, 2006 9:39 PM Subject: RE: [U2] Client interested in using Dynamic Connect with application software written with SBPlus I use Dynamic Connect in preference to SBClient. I have NO issues with it using it against SB+/UV in VT220 mode. It is less powerful than say, bNettermb (another well-loved emulator I have used) but it is free and quite serviceable for the price! As others have mentioned, it wonbt do SB+ downloads, smart client, tu.xxx routines and their ilk but it does have some SB+ smarts for printing boxes and the like. Setup: In SB+ in the terminal definition screen (/TERM.DEFN), start by creating a new emulation by copying one of the Wintegrate emulations supplied with SB+. Make sure the OE Term type is vt220 and PC Terminal type is set to 2 (aka Termite mode). This will give you a good colour emulation right off the bat. In the Setup /Terminal dialog of DC make sure that you have the sb and sb_keys extensions highlighted. Cheers.

RE: [U2] UV - Globalization studies, relative to U2
Baker Hughes wrote: Has anyone seen a study, a white paper, or anything which discusses Globalization in the MV arena? We need to provide currency translation in the near future, and eventually content localization. If someone has some links to read, or documents it would give us a leg up. I'm sure some of you have done this. Where did you start? Did you buy a solution, write your own? This may not be much help but DesignBais has been used to put a web GUI onto non-english apps, including at least one Chinese app which I believe runs over U2. It includes a glossary feature which allows a single application to display localized prompts, help text, etc. I don't know of any studies or white papers done on localization but maybe DesignBais International can hook you up with some client/developers who could share their experience. Content localization can mean a lot of things so be sure to define your business strategy clearly so that you can evaluate whether specific tools are in line with your goals. You might have better luck finding information about globalization and localization with regard to software development in general, identify appropriate non-MV tools, and then work out the best connectivity solutions. The .NET Framework and Java both have extensive localization (internationalization (I18N)) support built in, and from there tools like mv.NET, UO.NET, and UOJ can help to make the connection to U2 relatively seamless. Currency translation can be done from U2 by calling a variety of Web Services, either directly from U2 or through one of the above mentioned connectivity tools. So everything that you're asking about is within reach.
