Re: Print Distribution and IP connected Devices
The best way (IMHO) is for the network group to establish a pool of static addresses for printers and to hard assign those addresses to the printers. Then to take it a step further to give them DNS entries so the IPADDR can be changed if necessary but your print distribution doesn't need to be changed. The problem with DHCP is that you need to wait for the printer to attach to the network and then go find out what IPADDR was assigned. Then you have to go back and establish that address for the right printer in your distribution package. The real FUBAR happens if DHCP leases expire and the netwwork goes down (like that never happens)or the printer goes offline for an extended period of time (What? Hardware breaks? Go figure.). Now as the printers attach to the network they will all undoubtedly have new IP adrresses - just the nature of the beast. > Since I am not involved (unfortunately) with either the IP or Network part > of this move, I am not as familiar with this problem as I would like. > > However, I believe that Hal has identified my issue.

Me too.

Re: FW: COBOL Samples
I think we can be more helpful to this poor guy after all COBOL code won't help him, what he needs is executable code so here is a piece of an online program to make cash payments. 074A47FA 0008D237 C0A0501C 5851 121147B0 F1FE92C1 501947F0 F20292C1 500F982E C0A058F1 92F3 F00D92F6 F00E41F0 002407FE BFE8F550 41EE BDE8F551 4770F2D4 9826C0A0 D20FC0A0 F2569240 C05DD201 C05EF542 92CCC05C 4100F276 5600F524 5000C0B0 41E0C0A0 BFE8F54A 0B0E58E0 D0E405EE 58E0C0B0 0B0E 58E0 D0E805EE 58E050B4 0B0E 5890 C05CD20E 9008F510 Bill Dodge email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Phone: (703)627-2455 "If you don't know where you are going, any road will take you there."
