So can i make two or three different configurations inside the environment-tab of informix setnet32 , save them and use both at the same time ? Best regards Daniel

"Colin, is that also possible with w2k-terminalserver ? So can i make two or three different configurations inside the environment-tab of informix setnet32 , save them and use both at the same time ? " Depends how does your application connect. I have never seen an application that uses the setnet settings apart from the demo stuff that comes with Connect. E.g. with jdbc you put all the info in the connection string. I guess odbc is the same..

Errrm...... I only use "real" computers :) So can't comment on Windows configurations, sorry David Regards Colin There are 10 types of people in the world, those that understand binary and those that don't >From: david@smooth1.co.uk >To: informix-list@iiug.org >Subject: Re: Multiple instances >Date: 11 Feb 2006 12:33:45 -0800 > > >"Colin, >is that also possible with w2k-terminalserver ?
