RE: Re: TN5250 under Windows support is ready for tes ting

Well if you willing

For me on win98 it sits here
Hkey\LOCAL_MACHINE\Network\Logon\NetWareUsername"mbegan"

If it looks like it will take more then 5 to 10 minutes Don't bother cause
its not all that important (serious) I noticed that all the info I need is
in the window header (even if varied off) but it would still be cool.

You'd think there would be some place easier to grab the currently logged in
user name though wouldn't you.

Anyway

Thanks

Matt

Neat idea.   Could you do this by creating a seperate profile for each
user?  something like:

matt {
   env.DEVNAME=matt01
   host = example
}
bob {
   env.DEVNAME=bob01
   host = whatever
}
mary {
   env.DEVNAME=mary01
   host = as400
}

Or wouldn't that work?   How does Windows know what user you're signed
in under?

Making TN5250 change the terminal name by inserting a User-ID would be
somewhat more indepth, but I'd be willing to give it a try.  I just
don't know how to determine who is currently signed on :)
