Yea, I can make a connection just fine.  But I would like to create a
connection pool so my web app always has a couple open connections to
work with.

That's been our experience as well.  We authenticate our linux UV logins
against Active Directory, and our UV user names have always been all
uppercase.  Users can log in using either case (or mixed case), but the
user name in UV as returned by @WHO is exactly how the user name was
entered when it was created in AD.

When new users are inadvertently created with the wrong case, we delete
them from AD and re-create them correctly.

RE: [U2][UV] Up casing Login IDs {unclassified}

2007-08-27 Thread ATLAS SA
Problem solved! Thanks to all who replied. 

I had installed UV as the administrator, but edited the odbc.config file
as myself. A uvregen at the command prompt and then stopping and
starting UV services sorted out UV and it is now passing my login ID to
the UV.lOGINS file in upper case.

I had stopped and started UV as part of my trouble shooting of this
problem but not with a uvregen, which seems to be the key here. 

Cheers,

Andy

RE: [U2][UV] Up casing Login IDs {unclassified}

2007-08-27 Thread Mike Pflugfelder
Have you tried looking at the way your username is stored in windows.
The easiest way I know to do this is run the "net user" command from
windows, or "net user /domain" if it's a domain login.  All of our
network logins are in lower case, as is the same for most of our
customers.  We did have one customer that entered their logins in mixed
case.  Apparently, windows is case-insensitive when checking to see if
the login is valid, but when it returns the login to Universe, it
returns it in the original case that was entered, which for that
customer was mixed.  UV.LOGINS would not work as we had expected.
Ultimately, checking "net user" showed that they were in mixed case.
The way that I knew of to clean this up was to delete and recreate the
login in windows, or possibly rename the user.  Once the user is fixed
in windows, give Universe a reboot to clear it's user cache and it
should be fixed.

Good luck.
-Mike

Thanks Dave,

I tried it out but, unfortunately, the problem is occurring before the
UV LOGIN voc is invoked. And, to add insult to injury, it is only
happening to my login ID, not to the login ID of anyone else who has
access to the server.

If their UV.LOGINS record is AUSER10, they can enter any case
combination they like (AuSEr10) and UV passes AUSER10 to the UV.LOGINS
file. I use any case combination of my user ID and UV passes asuer14 to
the UV.LOGINS file. Somehow UV knows to upcase all telnet login IDs
except mine.

I suspect it may be because I installed something whilst logged onto the
server as myself, rather than as administrator. However, I did install
UV itself as administrator so it's not that. Possibly UVDK? However, I
have installed UV & UVDK on dozens of servers (Unix and Windows) and
have never had this occur before.

Also, I would rather not maintain separately formatted records for
myself throughout the DB. It would have further consequences in the
management of my records on what is the main payroll database.

Has anyone else encountered this problem before?

Cheers,

Andy

2007-08-24 Thread Ray Wurlod
Given that the purpose of UV.LOGINS is to map all possible login IDs (user, 
machine\user, domain\user) to one user ID, why not copy the upper case ones to 
lower cased equivalents in UV.LOGINS?

REPOSTED FOR NON-MEMBER ADDRESS: "MACK ANDREW, MR" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Hi all

I am setting up a new UV production server. UV 10.1.18 on Windows Server
2003, INFORMATION flavour. Access is via QVTTerm. On the existing prod
server, when you enter your enterprise login ID at the server login, UV
up cases the login ID and presents it to the UV.LOGINS file. However, on
the new server it is changing the login ID to lower case. Since all our
apps expect upper case, this is very frustrating.

For example, on the existing server I login as auser14 and a Who at TCL
shows KIWI\AUSER14. UV.LOGINS is:

Record Key :AUSER14
001 DOMAIN:KIWI
002 LOCAL  :
003 DOMAIN.ACCOUNT   :D:\DATA\USERS
004 LOCAL.ACCOUNT  :
005 DESC   :Andrew Mack
End of record

On the new server. I login as auser14 and a Who at TCL shows
KIWI\auser14. If I login as AUSER14, a Who at TCL shows KIWI\auser14. I
have to have UV.LOGINS records in both AUSER14 and auser14 otherwise it
falls over with the error "Unable to find user account information in
the UV.LOGINS file".

Could someone please advise what setting determines the case that UV
works with?

Thank you
