InfoSheet 1:
Using Cumlus with ISDN

This infosheet is about how to use Cumulus as a client-server-solution over an ISDN connection.

You should prepare a special ISDN server with the Cumulus server application and the databases you want to set up for the client. You have to launch Cumulus and open the databases.

Please setup your ISDN server as follows:
1) You have to activate Program linking in the Sharing Setup control panel (default: off).

2) You have to use the control panel users & groups to enter the different users that are allowed to log into your system. The clients are allowed to login by these names or as a guest. Cumulus uses these specified user names as well and you can restrict the users rights in the database (e.g. open, modification). You can assign these restrictions to the different databases. For each user you have to activate program linking as well (default: off).

3) Please open the Cumulus folder and activate the application. Use the menu item File/Sharing... to activate Allow remote program linking (default: on).

4) When you launch Cumulus you are able to tick Allow Sharing for each database you want to make accessable for the client (default: on). If you try to allow sharing even though program linking is not activated an error message is displayed.

As a connectivity tool it is possible to use e.g. ARA (Apple Remote Access) or LeoTalk from Hermstedt.The setup of your ISDN software should be like this: a client must be able to call the server and the server answers the incoming calls.
