Using Novell IPX call, I think you can ask the Name Server to locate the file
for you... you may have to locate a specific named device, but it would be
the same result.  Using the data returned to you by that call, you can then
specify the path that the application should use.

The IPX call would have to be compiled in Microsoft C 5.1 or MASM.

Borland's product is Interbase and, while I have not worked with it personally,
It's fabulous!  You're right about the VAX, maintenance of a small PC network
using Lantastic would be much lower than for a VAX.

I used summer 87 too, switched and had the same problem. No help at all
from the original manuals, nor from the (then) Nantucket Hotline.
They promised me to send a file - I am still waiting 9 months later.
Meanwhile a helpful soul on the net sent me a .LIB file from the US
version of clipper 5.0x that allows for .NDX indices.
I can send it to you, but: WARNING!! This thing has bugs - the sort mode
is not all too reliable: I could not find some records in Clipper that
were clearly 'seekable' in DBase. Eg: when you have a field with a
'.' in the name, clipper screws the whole index up. I understand that
there should be a patch to the NDX file LIB - but I don't know wheather it
is available or not. And again - no help from the Company (very poor, since
the cost for Clipper + Toolbox is not neglectable!)
So I am thinking of changing my indices to .NTX and regenarate them in DBase
if I'll ever have the need. It is certainly 1) more reliable 2) quicker.
There is also an explanation about NTX and NDX index files in the
README file included in my Clipper package mentioning problems with
'Deutsche Umlaute'...
I wonder what other answers you'll get, and what you decide to do - just
keep me informed...
Yours

Subject:      Clipper 5.01 and Paths....

I have written a small utility in Clipper 5.01 that checks the
status of over 30 novell servers.  My problem is I need to know
where the application resides...  I want to make it generic
enough that it can be started from some other drive and/or
directory and the application find it's database file that
contains a list of servers and their system administrators along
with phone numbers...  All I have been able to do is change to a
specific directory if I know it... and thats the problem, I never
know where the program will be started from.  My first thought
was if its not in the current directory, it must be on their path....
NOT!  They could very easily fully qualify the application name
with the path.... :-(


Any Suggestions????

Hello,

Last week I asked for suggestions how to control the
HP Deskjet with Clipper.
Somebody suggested:

SET PRINT ON
??  --escape sequence --
SET PRINT OFF

This works for some of the escape sequences and for many of
them it still doesn't work.
I succeeded to put the Deskjet (500) in draft mode or to
start the selftest, but what I need is:
 - placing the Deskjet in condensed mode
 - change the margins

I have got the manual with the escape codes in it, but they don't
work. Do I have to call another escape code before I the ones for
the above functions ?
Any suggestions ?

Thanks,   Ralf

Hi, I do not have dbase in front of me so I can not try it, but try copying you
r config.db to your system (ie the one where you will be using your version of
the .db at) then modify it the way you want it.  I know there is a place to tel
l the system where you want the .db to reside, but I do not remeber if you can
change dbase to use a special one and leave the network version alone.  Sorry G

Place your own config.db file in the directory where you start dbase.  That

Subject:      Multi user lock-up?

A friend's hard-drive crashed recently, and he was trying to reinstall
dbase IV ver 1.0 developers ed.  Since he does not have net access, I
am posting this for him---

He is trying to install dB under a Lantastic network. When he has
completed the multi-user installation, the install prog is asking
for system disk 1 to install users. Whenever he inserts this disk,
he is getting "wrong disk". Also, when he tries to run dB IV,  the
screen get a lot garbled ascii characters across the screen (where
the Ashton-tate logo is supposed to pop up) and the system locks up.
If he installs for a single user, the system works fine.

I have not been able to figure out why it's doing this from my docs,
etc.  I am pretty sure that his version allows for up to 4 users, so
I don't think thats a problem--or is it?

Please email all replies to me and I will forward them to him.

Subject:      re: PCPRINT under version 4.11(5)

Scott, this problem has been discussed before so you can examine the maillogs
on csus.edu.
    The solution to your problem is inserting a few seconds delay just after
the pcprint statement....so this program has enough time to initialize.


................

Now for my problem concerning PCPRINT in VINES 5.0(5)

On 2 stations running pcprint in order to serve Hp Laserjet II printers
all is ok...except that no jobs are coming out....they just stuck in the
queue  with the status 'printing'....sometimes (!) rebooting the pc helps
(local printing (without pcprint) is no problem)

I think that the problem might be due to the R:20 parameter I inserted in the
statement to increase printing speed...but I am not convinced since on other
workstations I did it too....and no problems over there.

In 4.11(5) I did not have those problems....


any ideas..?

Organization: Mail to News Gateway at Wang Labs

There are a couple of interesting articles in Computerworld this
week about Banyan and the recently completed BUI conference in
Boston.  They are entitled:

          Banyan users laud firm's strategy shift

          Vines users air wish list, complaints during Q&A

If anyone would like copies of either article, let me know.

Not according to the two Banyan people I talked to.  They are just providing
this to get everyone's e-mail system to the same functionality.  That is why
it is $99 per network, NOT per server.  It was never mentioned that the server
had to be under subscription AT ALL!!

Subject:      Incompatibilities

Hi all,

Is there a list somewhere of incompabilities between the mac-vines software and
the Apple-os software.  I know for a fact that Vines will not run on a system
lower than 6.07.  Where it gets tricky is with the system 7.0 tune-ups and
french versions of the  latter.

We are trying to solve some errors occuring like UNIMPLEMENTED TRAP and so
forth...  These are occuring on different brands of Apple HArdware..


Thanks A bunch, and all the best,

Subject: TCP/IP & Windows

I am interested in running TCP/IP under Windows 3.1 on my VINES network.
Basically, I just need to telnet (but tn3270 would be nice as well). Is
anyone aware of any products that will allow multiple telnet session under
Windows on a VINES network?

Thanks.

   That's good. I looked at NetForum, and was pleased with its ease of
use and appearance, but I didn't like the idea of giving everyone Modify
access to it, and I told them so. Maybe someone actually listened to me!
Right now I'm working on setting up a 386BSD not-really-Unix system as an
NNTP server to use as a BBS through PC/TCP and possibly Trumpet. We will
probably get a UUCP or Internet News/Mail feed to the outside as well.
I just got the options and software in on Friday, so I am rather pleased.
