Thanks to a whole bunch of people... Lee Trujillo, Brian Dunbar, Vern Walls, Gert-Jan Hagenaars, James Cayz, Ed Rolison, Bob Boldin, Nicholas Dorfsman, Dennis Peterson, Brian Caitlin, mikelist@sky.net <mailto:mikelist@sky.net> , and tleebeng@dso.org.sg <mailto:tleebeng@dso.org.sg> . To clarify some info I didn't mention in the first post: these users are Informix Data Warehouse users. They normally never log into the system, but Informix is configured to use the Unix password file for user/pass combinations. I still have a problem of figuring out how to explain to them how to update their ODBC settings, or even how to get to those settings, since these workstations are pretty much completely locked down (custom start ment, no RUN, no right-clicks), but that's for another group of people. Between here and another source of computer information I frequent, I got suggestions ranging from WebMin (http://www.webmin.com <http://www.webmin.com/> - very cool, and I may install it on my home server, but overkill for this purpose), a number of cgi scripts from Freshmeat that don't compile right with Solaris' PAM implementation (RedHat), and a note to look at the example passwd.cgi script that installs with Expect. The winner was Jesse Trucks, though, who reminded me that IE does one thing correctly right out of the box - URL's in the form telnet://hostname <telnet://hostname/> are invoked through telnet.exe - which is not deinstalled on these imaged workstations, simply unaccessible through the normal Start Menu routes. Thanks for the fast replies all - I was starting to get irritated with these non-compiling programs :-) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Mark Neill, Cendant Mortgage mark.neill@mortgagesvcs.com <mailto:mark.neill@mortgagesvcs.com> Advanced Tech Services Specialist Jacksonville, FL (904) 928-8121 (W) || (904) 716-6823 (C) _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Wed Apr 3 12:06:26 2002
