Hi Doug, We use UniVerse instead of UniData, but I understand the tools are the same. You do not need to be on the same subnet or network, but you do need access to the subnet/network for the RPC port. I have successfully connected to external servers without a problem, you may need to use an IP address rather than the host name but that depends on how you have things configured.
I would strongly recommend that you use a VPN or a gateway to access your server, this keeps your sever and network secure. I think using VPN is easier to use with the admin tools than setting up a gateway.

Having said that I think that's a great idea, the customer could setup a windows system with the admin tool installed and logmein/gotomypc/etc .... (which would NOT require vpn access) so that he could access the system remotely and run uniadmin Dougc -----Original Message----- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Robert Frailey Sent: Monday, January 21, 2013 11:52 AM To: U2 Users List Subject: Re: [U2] Unidata 6.1.13/AIX 5.3 Stops Unexpectedly Didn't you get Unidata admin tools?
