<P><FONT SIZE=2>I will try to get some examples of what I am doing out late this week 
or early next week.&nbsp; I am swamped at the moment.&nbsp; I also need to check on 
what I can post and give away.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Thanks to all those that responded to the original message.&nbsp; Here 
is the solution we are looking at.</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>We are one of the customers that do not want the Remote + 
communication going over the Foxboro Peer to Peer segment as would happen if we used 
the standard install of Remote +.&nbsp; We will be assigning a second IP to the Plant 
LAN network card. ( Using the hmeX:1 method) and binding the web server that I will 
use to that IP.</FONT></P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Thanks again,</FONT>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Hello Joe</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>I am not sure of whether you want to pass the information in the 
foxboro</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>domain (I could have been underhand of course) but anyway I would be 
very</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>interested in the method you are using to grab the real time (ish) 
data and</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>place it on some web pages. </FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;</FONT>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>For those of you that are using or are planning to use the Apache web 
server</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>on a Foxboro I/A workstation to provide information to your users, I 
have</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>some information that I think the user group needs to address with 
the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>Foxboro Company.&nbsp; Foxboro&nbsp; is apparently installing a 
&quot;Customized&quot; version</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>of apache to allow remote access to the system as part of remote plus 
(the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>successor to foxwatch).&nbsp; Instead of a dial up modem a router is 
being used.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>I think this is great and welcome any help and support that Foxboro 
can</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>offer.&nbsp; Here is my concern/issue with how they are doing 
this.&nbsp; Foxboro is</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>using port 80 (the default port for web servers) as the listing port 
for</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>their customized apache web server.&nbsp; This means that if I want 
to install</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>apache I would have to configure it to listen on a different port 
(port 8080</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>for example).&nbsp; This would then force my users to type in</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2><A HREF="http://servername:8080"; 
TARGET="_blank">http://servername:8080</A> &lt;<A HREF="http://servername:8080"; 
TARGET="_blank">http://servername:8080</A>&gt; .&nbsp; I asked if Foxboro could</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>use a different port and was told NO.&nbsp; It seems to me that for 
the amount of</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>time that Foxboro is going to utilize the web server compared to the 
amount</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>of use that the web server I installed would get, that they should 
use a</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>different port on their &quot;Customized&quot; version of 
Apache.&nbsp; The other push back</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>was for me to install apache on a different workstation on the 
node.&nbsp; That</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>would be fine, but I have several 1 Box nodes that this would not 
work on.&nbsp; </FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I am currently using cgi 
scripts with foxapi to provide real-time</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>snapshots of the system to operators, electricians, engineers and 
managers.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>By using this method I no longer have to push a remote Foxview 
session to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>individuals that only want a read only look at what the system is 
doing.&nbsp; I</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>would be happy to share how I am doing this if anyone is interested. 
</FONT>
</P>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Can the user group PLEASE comment on this.&nbsp; I would hope that 
Foxboro will</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>respond if the user group pushes back on this.&nbsp; Please do not 
hesitate to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>reply back to me if you need more detail or do not understand what I 
am</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>talking about</FONT>
</P>
