Re: STRHOSTSVR *ALL & Client Acc

[D.BALE@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hmmm.  So CA _does_ actually use all of these servers.  Why *NETPRT?

This gives me an idea.  Could I not set up a batch file that CWBPINGs my
systems and, depending on the results, issue an FTP'd "QUOTE RCMD STRHOSTSVR
*ALL" if any pinging was unsuccessful?  I could be quite a hero around here if
that could be done. <g>

At your PC's command prompt, run CWBPING command to show the host servers
or at least a breif description of each one.

Command syntax...   cwbping AS400SystemName

Subject:     STRHOSTSVR *ALL & Client Access

I am using Client Access for Win95/NT V3R1M2 (my lowest common denominator
is
an AS/400 running V3R2).

We also have Attachmate's Extra! personal client and connect via TN5250.
This
is not my preferred 5250 client, but I use it whenever I have a connection
problem that prevents me from signing on to one of our systems with the CA
client.  When this happens, our first remedy is to run STRHOSTSVR *ALL.

I'm somewhat wary of running this command if for no other reason than that
I
have no idea what's being started.  The documentation seems to suggest that
Client Access requires STRHOSTSVR *ALL.  It would be nice to know what each
of
the server types do and what kind of jobs require each server type.  The
documentation instructs the reader to look at the help text - need I say
more?
