Programming / Setup pdF output as a device link in Linux?
« on: December 16, 2019, 10:14:01 PM »
Is it possible to setup a device link to pipe thru lpr using the pdf function in Pvxplus?

Instead of changing some internal programming I was wondering if I could just setup a printer that would go to a pdf file.

Hope this makes sense.


Thank you

Kurt

Are you wanting to use WindX or another terminal emulator?

For WindX we generally suggest setting TERM to "winterm" -- however native Linux applications will generally need this set to "ansi"
I have used other terminal emulators, which works fine because I can set the terminal to ansi, or scoansi.  The problem is I can’t print using the windows printers, only what is attached to the cantos box.

I want to use windx via ssh, but when the program runs, the keyboard and term are all off. I don’t know where to set the TERM value; that’s where I need help.

Thanks in advance.

Kurt

I got it figured out.

I set the TERM value to ansi in the .profile file.

Depending if you log in or ssh in, certain profile files are used or not used.

Thin Client/WindX / Windx to access mas90 like program on centos over SSH
« on: November 28, 2019, 03:19:01 PM »
Hi,

We are running an accounting system similar to the old mas90 character program.  I need to be able to access the sessions over tcp/ip via ssh in windows using ansi or xterm as the terminal.

I can’t figure out how to set the terminal values so the display and keyboard is correct.

Thanks.

Programming / 2 factor authentication under linux?
« on: April 07, 2019, 08:38:48 PM »
Has anyone coded routines to allow for 2 factor authentication to login to a pvxplus program?

If so, is that code available?


Thanks

Kurt

Looks good.

Will take some use to.

Thank you for the continued support here.

Too bad there isn't a fast way to import all the old email chains into threads here for archive sakes.
