You need to update the unirpcservices file to have a sensible timeout value
for the server. This can time out without notifying the client in a manner
that can be easily trapped.
Look for the lines headed udcs and defcs and change the final column. Note
that the values are in 1/10th seconds
Caleb,
Just to point out - as a newbie don't think all MV coding is like this!
It's this sort of rubbish that gives our industry a bad name.
(Mind you I've seen worse C++ code...)

Good Morning Charlie,
No only a US issue, but also an issue for multinationals with US home
offices. We are in Argentina and have clients that must comply and frankly
we DO separate the DBA role from the programmer role and I am in favor of
this although it is an administrative pain at times.
Now I want to be really pedantic :-P and therefore here it is, the
probably ultimate piece of code:
IF AR(13) NE DATE() THEN
INS (P(2)-AR(12)) LE 28 BEFORE AR(14)1,1
DEL AR(14)1,9
CC=CC+AR(14)1,1
END

Glen,
I ran into this issue a couple of months ago. The issue with -U when
starting a phantom appears to be a bug in the command line parser. When I
type in the command:
PHANTOM DAILY-UPDATE
The command line parser thinks -U is the user option (for the PHANTOM
command), and subsequently

1. Create a request to modify.

You mean you don't separate them? Absolutely there needs to be a division
of labor here. As a developer I have no time to keep up with mundane
tasks as password verification, file resizing and maintenance, upgrades,

The difference is that you have access to LOOK, but not in any way CHANGE...

Our understanding of SOX is not to have one or two people involved in software

involved, the less chances
Believe me - I think there are quite a few of us globally who agree with
that sentiment!
On another note, I'm really sorry to hear that overseas companies

Ahh, but if one were to copy just the object code to the same path as the
voc that already existed in the main account, no trigger would be activated.
Doing this, someone could potentially 'cry war and wreck havoc'.
Or, someone could quickly disable the trigger, do the dirty work and

So if you're use to working with triggers, you know how to take the
