3981.0. "ALL-IN-1, MJU & TeamLinks" by GIDDAY::BURT (Scythe my dandelions down, sport) Tue Mar 15 1994 23:25

Hello and Greetings,

Customer is running ALL-IN-1 IOS 3.0 with MJU 3.0, and TeamLinks 2.1

Customer schedules a Janitor run every night for different departments. The
Janitor seems to access the sysuaf record to check for interactive logins.
Many Teamlinks user are REMOTE only, hence the old mail in their READ boxes
does not seem to be touched.

Is there a fix/work-around for this?

Thanks & regards,

Chele

    Hi Chele,
    
    In V3.1 we have solved this problem by adding a new field to the
    profile which basically says whether the user is an IOS or a TeamLinks
    user. We then made a change to SMREORG_JAN.SCP to pick up the value of
    this profile flag and changed the line:
    
    	get #last_login = uai$.lastlogin_i[oa$curdwr_owner]
    
    to:
    
    .if #profil_regular_user eqs "Y"
      .then
         get #last_login = uai$.lastlogin_i[oa$curdwr_owner]
      .else
         get #last_login = uai$.lastlogin_n[oa$curdwr_owner]
    .end_if
    
    This was based on the fact that when a TeamLinks user accesses the
    ALL-IN-1 File Cabinet, the File Cabinet Server will update the last
    non-interactive login date in the SYSUAF.
    
    I think you could temporarily do the same in V3.0 by allocating one of
    the user flags in the profile to this purpose.

3981.2Is there an alternative??GIDDAY::BURTScythe my dandelions down, sportThu Apr 14 1994 06:4411
Hi Stuart,

Sorry about the long time between responses - something about the mills of 
customers (?)

The customer is not enamoured of the idea of changing each users profile & 
wants to know if there is anything else he can do to check for remote users. 
They have over 4,500 users registered, hence his hesitation.

    Hi,
    
    The MJU will need to have something to differntiate between the users.
    Is there anything common to the TeamLinks users who do not also login
    to ALL-IN-1, such as the department field.
    
    Using a user profile flag I still think is best. The Manager can change
    the users by use of the GE (Global Edit) option in one go. When they
    upgrade to V3.1, they will be able to use the the new V3.1 flag by
    writing a tiny script that loops through the profile, copying the user
    profil flag to the new flag.
    
    Cheers
    
    Stuart

'lo Stuart,

The decision was made to write some modifications to the scripts, checking for
interactive & non-interactive login dates. The customer does not believe that
the suggested profile changes are suitable for public service sites, where
users "move around a lot" (he really DID say that), both within departments
from VT to PC etc, & from dept. to dept.

Thanks anyway,


Chele
