WoW Extensions v12

Hello:

Has anyone successfully passed data values (besides the server ip & port#) via the "RMCobol WoW Extensions" file RPCPLUS.INI ?  The RPCPLUS.INI file is installed on the PC and must include the Unix server ip & port# to run the object on the unix server. I'm trying to pass the windows user name (or just a name) to the unix server so I can identify the thin client user on the unix server.

Thanks!!

Hi,

You can use GETCLIENTADDR function to retrieve the IP address of the client.

Or you can use GETCLIENTARGS function to retrieve any parameters that were part of the command line when the Thin Client executable (wowclient.exe) was started.
