Actually - all it means is that the port is running in phantom mode.

Not sure if Redback has to be a phantom but certainly other things could be.

YMMV

On Unidata this should work:


Use SYSTEM(49) to retrieve a text description of the call stack. Redback
must use an entry point subroutine to call through to your code, if this
is in the top line of the output then it's running under Redback.

Edward

We found that just checking for a phantom seems to be what we need.  We
did not need to check for RedBack specifically.

Thanks for the help

There is a slot where you can specify the name of a program that gets called
when a responder starts.  We use that to initiate the COMMON block and in
there we put REDBACK into one of our common variables and check that
everywhere it matters.

2008-06-26 Thread Mike Randall
One of the previous recommendations seems to fit the bill, use @logname or
@who to determine if it's your Redback user and adjust the code accordingly.
All Redback requests will have the ID of user ID used to set it up.

I am not sure about a system variable, but as I understand it, rbadmin
is the one doing the communication on the PICK box.  If someone does not
have a better idea, you could EXECUTE !whoami and if you are rbadmin
