Kevin:
Thanks. I don't shutdown UniData (the "-f" is unnecessary (used only
for "stopud") and "stopudt pid [pidM... pidN]" will stop one or more
unidata processes). When I use UniAdmin to "Logoff" a user there's
approximately a 30 second pause between logging off the user/pid and the
user disappearing from the "LISTUSER" command. I didn't realize doing
this through UniAdmin could potentially corrupt files or interrupt writes!
I'm not sure where I got the "udtkill.exe" information from but I
substituted "deleteuser" for that executable. Only He knows if this
will work properly!
Thanks again,
Bill

Two things come immediately to mind... First, to force people off you're
shutting down Unidata altogether? Seems a bit harsh, that's all I'm
saying. Second, what about deleteuser instead of udtkill? I'm not a fan of
deleteuser (because even the documentation says it can cause corruption) but
that's the command that I understand is supposed to be used in place of
UniAdmin to force a user down.

Subject: [UD] Killing a UO connection

I'm running UO for most of the connectivity to our application.
Occasionally, a UO connection from DesignBais gets locked and I can only
get rid of it via UniAdmin. I have a BASIC program I run to delete
these connections and it mostly works. However, occasionally it
doesn't. Here's the code in use in BASIC:
IF OptionNos NE "FORCE" THEN
PerformVerb = "stopudt -f "
END ELSE
PerformVerb = "udtkill.exe "
END
Supposedly this was supposed to do the trick, but it doesn't. Does
anyone know what is used by UniAdmin to clear the connection so I can
program it into BASIC?
Thanks,
