Subject:      Using key-fake with muser?

A few weeks back someone mentioned using key-fake to feed keystrokes to muser
to automate adding many users. I tried doing this yesterday, I can't get it
working. I'm using 5.0(5), maybe it handles the keyboard differently? If
someone could point out my error using key-fake, or suggest another way (I was
thinking of piping a sequence into muser, but wasn't sure how to put cursor
keystrokes into the file? Will this work?), I would greatly appreciate it.

My addnick.bat file:
: routine to add a nickname to a Vines user id
: uses keyfake to operate the muser program
:    works with Vines version 5.0(5), others may require different keystrokes
:
: calling parameters are %1=nickname, %2 %3 are Vines id
:   %4=@group (and org) if different from current (optional)
: requires adminlist membership for person running routine
: doesn't handle three (or more) part names
:
key-fake 0 @80 @77 13 "%1" 13 @77 13 27
muser %2 %3%4

I've tried key-fake both with and without the 0 (keyboard checking) parameter.
Seems to make no difference. Also, mnick and setarl don't work either. The
routines I really need are to set passwords, add nicknames and change ARLs.

Help!?

I've experienced this problem myself, and I found it's usually one of
these two problems.

1)  The network is really busy and your comm buffers are filling up.  I
would recommend checking your communications buffer settings.  Set them
up to maximum (60) and see if that clears the problem.  If it does, back
them down to a "comfortable" setting.

2)  The network interface card is conflicting with another card in the
PC.  This seems to crop up especially with Bernoulli drives.  If you have
any other cards in the system besides the "standard" ones (VGA, HD/FD
controller, I/O board) remove them and see if the problem clears up.  One
word of advice:  Some "memory scanner" utilities like Quarterdeck
Manifest and Norton System Info don't always show a conflict when one
actually exists (with those Bernoulli drives in particular).  Don't ask
me why because I don't know.

   Hope this helps.

Subject:      re: Running a CD Rom service ove

We tried using Trellis but had problems with the software.  (My understanding
is the software has since been revised).  In the meantime though we looked at
software from Online, called OPTINET.  It works with NetBIOS.  It is very easy
to use and was working within about 15 minutes of opening the box.  With it we
are able to currently network 5 CDROM drives (expandible to 52).  We are in
the process of purchasing more drives to make more databases available.

What I like about it most is the ability to configure the max amount of users
at any one time per drive.  Also the way the drivers function at the client.
At the client after NetBIOS is loaded, you run NETUSR.COM, which looks just
like a cdrom drive to the PC.  Then you load MSCDEX (Microsoft CD Extensions).
Next using a utility from Online called ONET.EXE, you issue commands to attach
to which ever CDROM server and CDROM drive on that server.  Example:

         PCNETB                               :Load netbios
         SETNETB NetBIOS@CDROM@Business       :Connects to netbios service
         NETUSR                               :Load Optinet Driver
         MSCDEX  /d:$OPTINET                  :Load CD Extensions
         ONET -o DEMO                         :Open Database DEMO

One of the nicest features is the ability to refer to databases by name rather
than phisical location.  This makes it very easy to move databases around
without having to change batch files and other configurations.

Subject:      TCP/IP Installation Woes
X-To:         BANYAN-L@VM1.CC.UAKRON.EDU

I'm a rank beginner in the world of TCP/IP, and already I think I may
be hosed. We're running a Compaq SystemPro/LT 486/33 with VINES 4.11(5).
Last night I installed the TCP100 option key on the server and restarted
the server software, as described in the TCP/IP Option Guide. I did
_not_ reboot the server, as no indication was given that this was
necessary. When I attempt to access the TCP/IP menus at the server
console, they come up, but the following message appears at the bottom
of the menu screen:

"--> Cannot verify that any VINES TCP/IP Options are enabled"

If I try to access one of the TCP/IP menus anyway, I get:

"-->No changes can be made until after the server reboots again."

Does this mean that the server needs to be rebooted, despite the Option
Guide instructions, before the TCP option is enabled? It _does_ show up
under Manage Software Options.

Thanks...

Subject:      25th line messages hangs AS/400

We have a number of users that are using the IBM PC/Support program
to access our AS/400s over the Vines LAN.  Whenever somebody who is
in an AS/400 session receives a message (either via the SEND command, or
fro printing, etc.), their PCs hang after they press CTRL-X to get
rid of the message.  The only solution is to reboot the machine.

Has anybody run into this and if so , have you solved this problem.

We have the same problem here.  The way that I get around it is with batch
files that set the message bar (25th line message) to a 5 second timeout on
the way in, then set it back to WAIT on the way out.  It works beautifully and
since we generally prefer to have the message bar stay on the screen this
lets the system take care of blanking it after 5 minutes, only while using the
PC/TCP software.  The command is SETMSGS (I think). -- Betsy Miller

Subject:      re: VINES Mail to SMTP Gateway
X-To:         BANYAN-L@VM1.CC.UAKRON.EDU

We have our BANYAN SMTP gateway sends and receives all mail via an
unix mail gateway.  This unix box allowed a better logging of Banyan
SMTP activity with which we can see how much mail is sent or receive
by banyan.

Over the months, the unix box showed that occationally, a user's
mailbox is full and a Mail Service message will be sent.  This error
mail message would only identify itself as
<MS%SERVERx%SERVERS@SMTPGATE.domain> which doesn't mean much.  We
found that if the messages originates as POSTMASTER@SMTPGATE.domain
would have a better meaning.  So on the unix box, we added the
following lines into the sendmail.cf file:

# This is in S3  ruleset 3.
# To prevent an feedback of full mailboxes   6-22-92 ddc
Rms%$+%$-<@$->          postmaster@$3.$m
R<ms%$+%$-@$-.$m>       postmaster@$3.$m
Rms%$+%$-@$-            postmaster@$3.$m
Rms%$+%$-@$-.$m         postmaster@$3.$m

These additional line change mail both outgoing mail from incoming
mail to <MS%server%servers@host.domain> to be addressed as
POSTMASTER@host.domain.  We have found that this allows us to stop
mail loops once we had a dedicated POSTMASTER.

Next project, to have this unix box auto create ALIASES and
substitute address, since some places doesn't like Banyan's
interpretation of RFC822.

Third party interfaces must be written specifically for VINES to access
STDA, VINES mailboxes, folders, addressbooks, etc.  We use LanShark's
Shark!Mail for Windows.  Shark!Mail does not currently take advantage of
all the new IMS features, but Scott Sharkey tells me that it will. As for
the interface itself, I don't think it gets any better than Shark!Mail.
Very pleasing look and feel, that seems very intuitive to most users.

3Com just announced a new Etherlink card called the "EtherlinkIII/3C509".  It
runs faster than the 3C503, 3C503-16, or 3C507.  It uses a single chip
Ethernet ASIC chip.  List price in quantity one is $199, 5pk pricing is
$910 ($182 per).  Limited lifetime warranty.  Soon to have a EISA and MCA
versions.  But the important feature is it Banyan compatible.  They could not
tell how.  I suspect that is at least has NDIS drivers, if not Packet Drivers
and possible 3C503/3C507 emulation.

 Ditto on the 3-com warranty.  Here at ASU 3-COM is the standard for
 DOS machines.  Problems have been almost non-existent.  We're now
 shifting to the 503-16TP which does either 8 or 16 bit - and no
 problems so far - Workstation or Server!!

To me Intelligent Messsaging Services (IMS) has more and more flexible mail
services. Longer messages, rules for processing, easy interfaces to third party
mail packages, improved editing, etc.

Also the service will be more "robust" in the face of "complex" messages; they
won't bog down the mail service.

With regard to third parties, IMS is bigger and better.

With respect to present-day Banyan mail users, it's a godsend!

It seems Banyan are ramping up their Message Transport Agent to the demanding
levels required in today's and tomorrow's worldwide computing environment.

Don't you just love computer and info science?  Come on now, I see that smile
cracking. :-)

Get 5.11(?) to have 4.11 and 5.0 features in one package.  It may have the card
drivers you desire.
