Colin:

Thanks. It appears this applies to UV only. Per page 2-10 of the UD documentation "Administrative Supplement for APIs", "On UniData servers, UniRPC maintenance is minimal. You cannot change the port number of the UniRPC, and there is no need to maintain a /*hosts*/* *file."

In UniAdmin, there's no prompt for changing the RPC port for UniData.

It appears the way is to control the client side and include a port with the connection attempt. Then, in the firewall, parse out the port and forward it to the appropriate machine. Haven't quite got it working yet but it looks like it may work with my Netscreen 5gt.

Thanks again,

Bill

Bill;

Have a look at technote: SFMA-12331. It looks like it shows how to change it
on both the server and the client.

   Thanks Gregor.  I just got off the phone with a friend and we came to
the same conclusion.  Now we need to figure out how mv.NET can make a UO
client call using port 31439 (or whatever).

Thanks again,

Bill

Hi Bill.

Have you looked at port-mapping on the firewall?
This allows port 31439 at the firewall to be mapped to port 31438 on the
second UD machine, alleviating the need to re-locate the UniRPC port on the
second server.

Subject: Re: [U2] [UD] UniRPC Port#

    The problem I'm having is I have two machines, inside a firewall and
on a single network, running UniData.  I want to get access, using
uo.net, to each machine.  I have a single IP address.  Thus, I'd have to
be able to start the unirpc service on each machine using a different
port (one 31438 and one 31439, for example).  Then, I'd have to figure
out how to get the UO client to make a call using one or the other port#s.

Is this possible?  I know, when I'm using UniAdmin, I can create a
connection to a U2 dbms server and specify the port#.  Does this only
apply to UV?


Thanks,

Bill

   In UniData (on Windows) the default unirpc port is 31438.  Can I
change this?  It seems I can in UV but not on UD.  How can this be?

The "E:\IBM\unishared\unirpc\uniprcservices" file doesn't include the
port...

udcs E:\IBM\ud\bin\udapi_server.exe * TCP/IP 0 300
defcs E:\IBM\ud\bin\udapi_server.exe * TCP/IP 0 300
udserver E:\IBM\ud\bin\udsrvd.exe * TCP/IP 0 3600
udadmin E:\IBM\ud\bin\udadmin_server.exe * TCP/IP 0 3600
udadmin72 E:\IBM\ud\bin\udadmin_server.exe * TCP/IP 0 3600
unirep72 E:\IBM\ud\bin\udsub.exe * TCP/IP 0 3600
rmconn72 E:\IBM\ud\bin\repconn.exe * TCP/IP 0 3600

Any help would be appreciated.

Bill
