Windows systems : Messages for Novell environment -------------------------------------------------- With some specifics operating system configurations, when our module named Jericho is starting, it could send the two following messages : "IPX Not installed" and "Unable to start SPX" in two windows titled "Interface NetWare-Windows for Jericho". If you want to be connected with a NetWare server, you have to check if the client for NetWare is correctly installed. If you don't need to be connected to NetWare, it is possible to suppress the two messages, modifing file UPSMAN\MMI\JERICHO\Jericho.ini To do so, you have to disable the "Deport_Netware= ... " control key in section "[Modules] (adding comment character ";" at the beginning of the line) NOTA : The messages refered above will not disturb our software, except to communicate with a NetWare server. CAUTION : Pager/Email functionality is not usable with PSP for NetWare. See MGE UPS Systems' Web site to get an update. 2) Information about pager/mail (Jericho) ========================================= Using MAPI-Mail driver ---------------------- The MAPI-Mail driver of JERICHO uses the messaging interface of Windows 95/NT (MAPI). It can function only if the MICROSOFT EXCHANGE module is installed and correctly configured. To open and configure Microsoft Exchange, double-click on the Microsoft Exchange icon on the desktop. Under Windows NT, when JERICHO is automatically launched, it functions as a service and is not attached to a user context. It has not therefore access to user profiles created by Microsoft Exchange. To use the MAPI-Mail driver under Windows NT, it is necessary to launch JERICHO from the desktop (from the "Start" menu or by adding it to the "Startup" group). The syntax to use to define the address of the receiver when dispatching a message through the MAPI-Mail driver depends on the messaging service selected. For the basic services installed under Windows 95 and Windows NT, this syntax is the following: -> Internet Mail Use the e-mail address of the receiver -> Microsoft Mail : Use the syntaxe : NETWORK/POSTOFFICE/MAILBOX with NETWORK = network name (generally "Windows") POSTOFFICE = MS-Mail server MAILBOX = mailbox of the receiver To know parameters to use, open the address book of Microsoft Exchange ("Tools" menu) and double-click on the name of the desired receiver. Session closure under Windows NT -------------------------------- When JERICHO is automatically launched at Windows start, it is running as a service. For reasons of to long closure time at Windows shutdown, JERICHO must anticipate its closure on receipt of log off message. For this reason, JERICHO is stopped when the user logs off the system. Creating a new BIP driver ------------------------- The "Bip" driver can be setup to call all type bips : bip service integrated to the enterprise pabx, person research system, public bip paging service. When the bip driver is setup for use of a specific bip service, it can be duplicated then renamed to make a new driver (as Tatoo). To do it : a) Setup the "Bip" driver with appropriate values and modify its name (for example : Bip -> Bip-New) b) In the file "BIP.INI", at the "[Drivers]" entry, copy the first line ("0=Bip-New" in the example) and add it at the end of the entry with the number following the last defined driver. Then rename the first driver in the file. [Drivers] ----> [Drivers] 0=Bip-New 0=Bip 1=Tatoo 1=Tatou 2=Bip-New c) In the file "PAGER.INI", at the "[Drivers]" entry, add a line to identify the new driver : [Drivers] Bip=100,Bip.DLL,0,1 Tatoo=101,Bip.DLL,1,1 ---> [Drivers] Bip=100,Bip.DLL,0,1 Tatoo=101,Bip.DLL,1,1 Bip-New=102,Bip.DLL,2,1
