Re: Rexec Return Code -- MIDRANGE-L

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

And it's also a Win NT 4.0 thing. I believe Server 2000 and 2003, and
Active Directory use DNS and not WINS. It's just for legacy
stuff...like me. :)

Thanks again for the tips and the code Scott...first rate as always!

Hmmmm... I'm not familiar with that configuration, but then I'm not a
Windows expert. But, I guess it makes sense.

My understanding is that WINS makes the names of Windows clients
available to DNS. Client systems aren't normally put into DNS as DNS
entries. WINS or Dynamic DNS is used so clients can be known to DNS.
Then rexec (and other TCP/IP apps) can resolve the name of the client
system.
