Re: WebFacing and Specific Device

I don't believe that is possible.  They devices are created, reused and 
destroyed dynamically.  There is not a 1:1 connection between PC box and 
device like there is with and emulation session.

[WDSCI-L] WebFacing and Specific Device






Hello,

Does anyone know if there is a way to pre-assign a specific OS/400 device 
name to a given WebFacin session?

I am working with an application that requires that it know ahead of time 
what devices are going to be accessing it, and it sets certain variables 
such as printer name, etc.. based on that.  It's a rudimentary form of 
security for a fairly old application, but it's a "feature" that's built 
in so tightly to the application that removing or bypassing it would be a 
major undertaking.

If I could assign a device name on the web facing project, that would help 
tremendously.

Thanks,

Shannon O'Donnell
