RE: [U2] [UD] IP address of Users
Jeff: Thanks for the idea. I did that too and use SYSTEM(512) to write the IP address. This IP address is the same as the one on the list-users listing if the checkbox in wIntegrate and AccuTerm is checked to allow device licensing; it's correct if the checkbox isn't checked. Does your code actually reflect a difference between device licensing being checked/unchecked on the client? Are you using Windows? How are you getting the IP address; through U2 or through the O/S?

RE: [U2] [UD] IP address of Users
Bill, There are some differences in our environment. We use SBClient to access UD running on AIX. All of our users usually log in through the same PC every day although their DHCP provided IP addresses will change. Our device licensing isn't configured through the terminal software but instead through the .profile in the user's home directory. Our problem was that we were seeing stale IP addresses with the AIX listuser command as well as in the SB+ USER.ID file. This was causing some messaging services to fail. I've contacted the programmer who wrote this to see if he thinks his code would solve your problem as well. HTH On Mon, 2008-09-08 at 11:15 -0700, Bill Haskett wrote: Jeff: Thanks for the idea.

What does who report in AIX? The internal or external IP address? On Mon, Sep 8, 2008 at 7:23 PM, Bill Haskett [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks Jeff.
