RE: UV on W2K3 - trying to add to path
There IS some way of setting the environment. Don't ask me how :-( Probably control panel and then somewhere deep in the bowels of system management.

If that is the case every time you do the dos cammand it launches another DOS command execute, like launching another shell. I am not sure if there is a way of copying the variables from the base as you can with unix. I would run a bat that initialises those variables each time you launch dos, or the other hand consider unix services for windows, which gives unix people a more comfortable interface to windows.

To get a feel of what it will be like and to scope the learning we need to do we have set up a totally isolated W2K3 server (PDC) and have installed the personal version of UniVerse while we wait for an NT version from IBM. I added to the System Environment variables an extension to the PATH = c:\IBM\UV\BIN Problem - we do not get this in our telnet session. It is fine in a cmd session from the server but is missing from the telnet session. Can anyone explain how we add this on an NT platform. Universe was installed as Administrator and we have even tried using Administrator as the user in the telnet session but that did not show the extra path. Our personal user accounts are in the Admin group. I can add this within my session as PATH=%path%;c:\ibm\uv\bin and it works. However this is lost next time. I can see this is going to be an interesting learning curve for our DBAs (Oracle and UniVerse) who have UNIX skills but little exposure to NT apart from using a desktop.

RE: ANTIVIRUS
the AV got on their network because symantec corporate edition didn't detect it, despite their docs saying they can detect this family of virus's since December 2003 (which is the third time in under a month i've had this happen on our network - although mcaffee doesn't detect this virus either and as of yesterday you have to request a specific patch from mcaffee support for this) The problem in all our customer cases is that the database server is not firewalled from the rest of the network and I can't see a customer buying a firewall for *each* server that they need to run and only allowing the relevant ports to it. Their entire network was *supposedly* firewalled with only certain ports going out, but I think the infection was caused by a user dialing into the internet on their laptop and then infecting the lan when plugging it in on monday morning I liked simon's comment about the shares with SB and i'd also like to mention that the preferred method of communication on a windows server is via a network share and not sbz or ftp! as to various versions of software, mcaffee kills the processing speed of pc's in a big way - (symantec is a little better). the speed of updates is a big minus for symantec but i'd say that all a/v software is really slow to react at the moment with the amount of virus's. -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users

RE: ANTIVIRUS
Of course, as every article will tell you, the main thing is not what AV you are running. There are lots of good ones out there. The main thing is to ensure that your definitions are kept up to date. Otherwise they are all equally useless. I did run one that used some form of heuristics to try to isolate potential viruses for which it did not have a formal definition. It causes chaos, identifying about one in 10 files as potentially infected. So I gave up on that route and now just keep my auto-update running.

Re: SV: ANTIVIRUS
No, no need to run the antivirus junk on a Unix machine. In fact this whole thread is simply more evidence that you'll do better to run a database server on Unix. I have the lucky job of being the DBA for a couple of UniVerse systems running under HP-UX and a half dozen Micro$oft SQL servers running on Windows 2000. I spend far more time dinking with the Microsoft stuff for non database related fixes (patches, share security, PDC problems, etc). That said, Micro$oft SQL server is a great database system, it's only drawback is that it must run on Windows. Well, theres also the fact you have to tell it abouit all those data types and lengths...

The Macs were always getting hit with viri of some sort and the standard fix at the time was to wipe the disk and reload the software. On a Mac with a 20meg hard drive, this did not take too long. snip .although that might be because the AV vendor has allocated their best employees to that department. ;-) - Robert -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users Don Kibbey Financial Systems Manager Finnegan, Henderson, Farabow, Garrett Dunner LLP -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users

After you decrement LOP, you need to decrement MAX. Otherwise the loop will be unable to get beyond 4.

RE: Optimization ?
This is the preferred version. It's also a bit slower. The point is, you can GUARANTEE that LOP will decrement on every pass, and the loop will terminate. With the other version, you need all sorts of extra code and crap to make sure you don't do what your original version is doing - ie counting from 1 to 8, and getting stuck on 4. If you kill the currently running infinite loop, then rerun it with a PRINT statement after the FOR, you will see that it successfully trims your string to 'THIS}IS}A TEST', but LOP is now 4, value 4 is the empty string, so LOP is decremented every pass, is stuck at 4, and will never reach the 8 needed to terminate the loop ... The decrement is less efficient at string handling. It is also far easier to code without screwing up - there's only one way to do it (tm), while the increment method has many ways of getting it wrong, and only one (complicated) way of getting it right. After you THINK you've got it right, try feeding it the string '}' :-) Cheers, Wol -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Peter Olson Sent: 25 March 2004 12:57 To: 'U2 Users Discussion List' Subject: RE: Optimization ? ok... now what's quicker / preferred...

Re: [UD] RFS and SAN storage
[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Doug Miller) wrote on 03/24/2004 11:45:32 AM: With the MC Service guard they can TOC a system (Transfer of control) at a drop of a hat and be back up and running on the 2nd machine very quickly. The 2nd machine grabs the ip address of the primary and people just have to log in again and pick back up where they were. I agree with Doug - this can be a very slick implementation if done correctly. I've worked with RFS installations on HP-UX with MC/ServiceGuard, and on AIX with HACMP. The clustering software nicely handles the fail-over, with the assumption that UniData is running with RFS to handle the cleanup. However, it's critical to ensure that UniData is set up correctly in the shared environment. There are components that need to be available on the shared disk, and other components that need to be unique to each system. If all of the pieces aren't in the right places, the TOC could result in a failure when starting UniData, or an invalid RFS recovery. Tread softly and test thoroughly when implementing this sort of solution. Also make sure the clustered environment is set up by somebody that understands it inside and out. This can be very complex to implement. Back to the original question, there's no fundamental problem with running RFS over a SAN. If at all humanly possible, you'll want to isolate the before-image, after-image, file-level, and archive logs from the database files. This is important for performance, since you don't want heads and controllers busy updating the database and log files at the same time. Also, if there is an unrecoverable media failure (not too likely these days, but it does happen!), you don't want it to take out the database files the archive logs at the same time. Otherwise you'll have to resort to your backups with no way to recover to the point of the failure.

[OT] Access Denied Continued
Earlier this week I posted a message about getting an access denied message when printing to a shared printer in a Universe application. This is more of a networking issue, but I thought I'd pick y'all's brains. I'm running UV10 on an NT4 server. The printer is a Zebra bar code printer connected via LPT1 on a WindowsXP Pro machine. The printer/machine in question is networked to the corporate domain via 3Com wireless bridge. We are running Domain level authentication. When a user first logs in to the machine with the printer attached and runs the UV application the print job works beautifully. Following a period of inactivity, the app starts returning the access denied message. It's almost as if the machine loses it authentication on the domain or the UV server loses the connection to the user machine. There's no hibernation or sleep settings set on the client or the server. I can also connect to the share machine and printer via the network but still get the access denied message. Anyone have any clues as to why access is being stripped after inactivity? TIA, Ray -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users

RE: Uniobjects
No so at all - the majority of the WinFAST installations that are out there (not STORIS mind you but the other, non-MV ones) are primarily done in AutoGui mode. This is a mechanism that we chose not to use because we opted for the whole hog approach. I recommend that anyone looking for a relatively simple, inexpensive and quick to market solution to the perennial it looks like DOS complaint. Look at WinFAST - it's versatile (you can get a GUI in a short period of time, thus preserving market share) and then, if you choose to, go to the event driven model. As you know Debster, we made a reasoned business decision not to go with the AutoGui mechanism because we felt that A) we had enough time left in the character based application to do it right the first time and B) that the underlying business rules needed to be broken out of the input routines anyway. Based on those two facts, the decision to re-write was made with full knowledge of the time and expense needed. Prior to making that decision however, several proof of concept trials were made and the face of the product was very successfully changed to look as though it were developed in VB (or other graphically-oriented tool). I stand by my statement having been intimately involved with the product from the beginning of our relationship with them.

Re: Uniobjects
Steve, (and others who may be curious about migrating to GUI) As one with extensive experience in development of GUI and character based applications with the Nucleus/NRG environment, I would like to offer a rapid 2 cents worth. You wrote: We are in the process of analyzing different approaches to porting our software to a GUI environment. We are currently looking at Uniobjects for Java, System Builder, jBase with ObjEx, OpenInsight and Obsydian (which I have yet to get information on). If you have any other ideas or have gone through this process, I would like to know a few things: 1) How is the response time with multiple windows up at the same time? Response time to switch between windows is usually dependent on basic factors: a) Size of the object(s) (i.e. programs) that will be brought into focus. b) Speed of the client machine, as fast desktops are cheap these days (1,800 mhz AMD processor system for under $300.00), a client system with a 700 mhz or better processor with adequate memory ensures rapid transition times between modules. c) Large modules that load data from a host system can take a few seconds to initially load especially when large amounts of data are to be displayed. (Compare loading of a large Excel spreadsheet to a small one). d) Multiple objects may exist on a active desktop, some in sleep mode, and others in active mode where the active objects come to focus more quickly. e) As the Nucleus environment is a smart-thin-client environment, the only thing that is loaded from the host system is a template describing to the client-manager what and where, along with the data to be displayed. I can safely state that you can either work hard and write code to incorporate objects, or let the Nucleus/NRG engine do the work for you with a far faster deployment and greatly simplified maintenance. 2) How did you deal with security? We need field level security. Security in Nucleus/NRG can be controlled at the field level on a user by user or group level. Security for any Menu, File, Command, Device etc., can also be implemented on a user or group basis, much as exists in a unix environment. Security can be added at design time or tightened up later as security requirements are codified (written) without incurring any design stage issues. There will be no problem if you desire to implement security as an afterthought, as it is inherent in the Nucleus engine managing the object sets. 3) The approach you used to convert the screens, etc. Nucleus screen design is structured to layer on top of data definitions - i.e. DATA DICTS. If your dictionaries are clean and easily read and understood by humans - either A, S or I type, you can quickly prototype a screen from the Nucleus shell prompt, as: CUSTOMERFILE CUST.ID WINDOW(width,depth,column,row) @(col,row) COMPANY ADDRESS etc. and have a screen appear within seconds. The design phase is rather straightforward and familiar to anyone who has used BASIC, RETRIEVE/ENGLISH and data dictionaries. Rules can be quickly added, existing subroutines can be called as long as the COMMON blocks don't conflict. Btree selections are a no-brainer to implement along with intersected joins and automated choicewindow selections. Migrating from a hand-coded character based environment to a Rapid Deployment environment adds many options to the design equation that were impracticle with manual code. Adding drill-downs, pop-up selections or multiple pages to screens are incredibly simple to accomplish. Collaborating with end-users is no-longer a frustrating process with Nucleus.. You can often prototype the guts of an application in a few minutes to demonstrate the look and feel and then add the bells and whistles as the user-population and the programming group firm up the design concepts. There is an easy transition path to GUI in Nucleus without a steep learning curve - a couple of days of instruction and you can be well on your way to being very comfortable developing within the environment. An integrated environment exists within Nucleus that doesn't require any knowledge of objects or properties and allows you to do your development and maintenance in ways that are intuitive to a pick programmer. If you want or need to integrate ActiveX objects, java script or C#, those controls can be easily integrated. Nucleus supports GUI, green-screen, character based color as well as WEB support using the same rule-sets, greatly reducing support effort and ensuring data consistency. BTW, Nucleus supports most multi-dimensional environments and allows an application created in say Universe or UniData (following simple rules), to be ported without effort to another environment such as jBASE, D3, UniVision, etc with only a re-compile. There is a migration outline available on our website: http://www.binarystar.com/MigrationFromLegacyToNucleus.html If you (or anyone else) would like to see how it works, click here: http://www.binarystar.com/contact.html

Denver say this is fixed in 10.0.21 (which we haven't seen yet), so I guess probably in 10.1.1 as well Holding / setting / saving your DOS Path * You'd need a Basic Program, run in your LOGIN paragraph * The program would - EXECUTE 'ENV' CAPTURING Env.Stuff, then - parse out the Path=... line from Env.Stuff into, say, Env.Path, then - Env.Path := ';c:\ibm\uv\bin', then - EXECUTE 'ENV SET PATH=':Env.Path: CAPTURING Env.Stuff * This will change your DOS path * I'd be inclined to save the Env.Path in COMMON somewhere so you can re-set it later if you need to Nasty -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Sara Burns Sent: Thursday, 25 March 2004 17:59 To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: UV on W2K3 - trying to add to path We are starting our evaluation of running UniVerse on W2K3. To get a feel of what it will be like and to scope the learning we need to do we have set up a totally isolated W2K3 server (PDC) and have installed the personal version of UniVerse while we wait for an NT version from IBM. I added to the System Environment variables an extension to the PATH = c:\IBM\UV\BIN Problem - we do not get this in our telnet session. It is fine in a cmd session from the server but is missing from the telnet session. Can anyone explain how we add this on an NT platform. Universe was installed as Administrator and we have even tried using Administrator as the user in the telnet session but that did not show the extra path. Our personal user accounts are in the Admin group. I can add this within my session as PATH=%path%;c:\ibm\uv\bin and it works. However this is lost next time. I can see this is going to be an interesting learning curve for our DBAs (Oracle and UniVerse) who have UNIX skills but little exposure to NT apart from using a desktop. I will be on leave tomorrow (Friday) so I will see if I can get the digest sent to me at home.

The [ ] is an extract only and does not force the length of the preceding text/attribute to be 30 characters long. The solution by Results - F;1;(ML#30);2;: - is the correct method, it will force attribute 1 to be 30 characters long and concatenate with attribute 2. So attribute 1 multivalue 1 will concatenate with attribute 2 mv 1, att.1 mv 2 with att 2 mv 2 and so on. The (ML#30) is ignored for blank values so att 1 mv 2 (and 3 etc) will be blank and not a row of 30 spaces. As long as attribute 1 is a single value you will end up with your desired result: Name of item 1st line of notes 2nd line of notes The other important thing for this dictionary item to work, is that the length must be the same value as in the ML# command.

Re: [OT] Access Denied Continued
Dear Ray et al. Could the network login time out? So that the person may still be logged into UV, but have lost their login to the NT domain? Steve At 11:47 AM 3/25/04 -0500, you wrote: Earlier this week I posted a message about getting an access denied message when printing to a shared printer in a Universe application. This is more of a networking issue, but I thought I'd pick y'all's brains. I'm running UV10 on an NT4 server. The printer is a Zebra bar code printer connected via LPT1 on a WindowsXP Pro machine. The printer/machine in question is networked to the corporate domain via 3Com wireless bridge. We are running Domain level authentication. When a user first logs in to the machine with the printer attached and runs the UV application the print job works beautifully. Following a period of inactivity, the app starts returning the access denied message. It's almost as if the machine loses it authentication on the domain or the UV server loses the connection to the user machine. There's no hibernation or sleep settings set on the client or the server. I can also connect to the share machine and printer via the network but still get the access denied message.

All I can suggest Sara is that in the environment settings for the user you are logging in as to use UniVerse, the PATH variable is being explicitly set to a specific value which doesn't include the current value %PATH%. If you set a SYSTEM environment variable then I'd expect all other users will inherit it unless they explicitly overwrite it. Normally, I don't set PATH for other users, I just let them just inherit the SYSTEM setting, or in their login script I make sure that any setting for PATH begins with %PATH%; so it can use whatever is there already.

Writing a RPC Service
A customer has asked how he could implement some stringent security on the 'unirpc' services. In particular, he wants to only allow certain 'Requests' (like the 'Subroutine' method, etc.) from any users out there writing UniVerse Objects front-ends. To me, this means he wants unirpc to fire off uvserver when requested by UniObjects, but to have uvserver only forward on his allowed Methods (and no other). This would keep developers from writing code that could .Read, .Write, .Delete, etc, and force them to obey his security standards. 1) The first option I can think is to 'intercept' the uvserver executable. Has anyone any experience with writing their own Services for unirpc? 2) Next, how about distributing a cut-down version of the DLL (or is it OCX?) that his users will bind into their app?
