This patch contains a new field, which you should populate. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Patch XM*8.0*3 1. NOIS: LAS-0802-62501 Test Site: Las Vegas, NV The communications testing routine, XMCDNT, distributed with MailMan 8.0 was an old version which does not work. This patch provides a version that works. 2. This patch also adds a new field to the MAILMAN SITE PARAMETERS (#4.3) file. You should fill it in with the DEVICE you normally use for your TCP/IP scripts in DOMAIN (#4.2) file. With the addition of this new field, it is now possible to distribute new domains automatically, rather than having you enter them manually. Here's the new field: STANDARD DATA DICTIONARY #4.3 -- MAILMAN SITE PARAMETERS FILE STORED IN ^XMB(1, DATA NAME GLOBAL DATA ELEMENT TITLE LOCATION TYPE ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4.3,8.25 TCP/IP DEVICE NETWORK;5 FREE TEXT INPUT TRANSFORM: K:$L(X)>30!($L(X)<1) X I $D(X) S %ZIS="NQRS",IO P=X D ^%ZIS K:POP X S:$D(X) X=ION W:$D(X) " Sto red internally as ",X D ^%ZISC S IOP="HOME" D ^ %ZIS K IOP,%ZIS HELP-PROMPT: Which device shall be used for TCP/IP? DESCRIPTION: For TCP/IP connections, the physical link/device to be used is usually standard - some sort of NULL device. This field is a free-text pointer to that device in the DEVICE (#3.5) file. The device pointed to by this field will be used for a TCP/IP connection if, in the DOMAIN (#4.2) file, the device field is null in both of the following fields: - PHYSICAL LINK / DEVICE (#1.3) field of the TRANSMISSION SCRIPT (#4) multiple - PHYSICAL LINK DEVICE (#17) field For more information, see the PHYSICAL LINK DEVICE (#17) field, in the DOMAIN (#4.2) file. NOTES: XXXX--CAN'T BE ALTERED EXCEPT BY PROGRAMMER 3. Finally, this patch corrects the descriptions in two fields: - MAIL GROUP (#3.8) file, MEMBER GROUPS (#11) field - invalid information deleted - DOMAIN (#4.2) file, PHYSICAL LINK DEVICE (#17) field - information about default values corrected NOTE: This patch should be installed during off hours, when user activity is at a minimum. It has no patch prerequisites, except, of course, that MailMan 8.0 be installed. Installation will take less than 1 minute. ============================================================================ ROUTINES: The second line of the routine now looks like: ;;8.0;MailMan;**[patch list]**;Jun 28, 2002 Before After Name Checksum Checksum Patch List ------------------------------------------------------------------ XMCDNT 401792 659873 3 XMKPR1 5051210 5167213 3 * Checksums produced by CHECK^XTSUMBLD This patch introduces no new routines. =========================================================================== INSTALLATION: NOTE: This patch should be installed during off hours, when user activity is at a minimum.

You can queue the install by enter a 'Q' at the device prompt. Enter a '^' to abort the install. DEVICE: HOME// ------------------------------ 6. DSM Sites: After patch has installed, rebuild your map set, if necessary. 7. In the TCP/IP DEVICE (#8.25) field of the MAILMAN SITE PARAMETERS (#4.3) file, enter the name of the device used at your site for TCP/IP scripts. If you don't know it, you can find it by doing a FileMan Inquiry for FORUM (or any other domain with a TCP/IP script) in the DOMAIN (#4.2) file: Select OPTION: INQUIRE TO FILE ENTRIES OUTPUT FROM WHAT FILE: DEVICE// 4.2 DOMAIN (548 entries) Select DOMAIN NAME: FORUM.VA.GOV ANOTHER ONE: STANDARD CAPTIONED OUTPUT? Yes// (Yes) Include COMPUTED fields: (N/Y/R/B): NO// - No record number (IEN), no Computed Fields NAME: FORUM.VA.GOV FLAGS: S PHYSICAL LINK DEVICE: NULL DEVICE <<< 2nd choice <<< TRANSMISSION SCRIPT: TCP/IP PRIORITY: 5 NUMBER OF ATTEMPTS: 30 TYPE: Simple Mail Transfer Protocol PHYSICAL LINK / DEVICE: NULL DEVICE <<< 1st choice <<< Your first choice for the device is the one in the TCP/IP script. If there isn't any there, then your second choice is as indicated. Note: - Not all of the fields are shown in this example. - Your TCP/IP script may have a different name from the one shown. - Your device may have a different name from the one shown. =========================================================================== Routine Information: ==================== Routine Name: - XMCDNT Routine Checksum: Routine Name: - XMKPR1 Routine Checksum: ============================================================================= User Information: Entered By : BEUSCHEL,GARY Date Entered : AUG 28, 2002 Completed By: HERREN,CATHRYN Date Completed: SEP 06, 2002 Released By : GRAY,STEPHEN Date Released : SEP 12, 2002 ============================================================================= Packman Mail Message: ===================== $END TXT
