| 08/27/2006 | New Server
4 times as fast, 4 times the disk storage and 4 times the memory. I just hope it proves as reliable as the old server which ran for 5 years with minor maintenance! |
| 07/06/2006 | ISP Change Verizon refuses to upgrade service to the 400 customers in this complex. The ISDN line was dropping 2-3 times a day. Fractional T1 was too expensive. On July 3, 2006 the service was switched to COX Cable (5 mb down, 2.5 mb out). So far, so good. Will soon have everything working again. |
| 03/03/2003 | ISP Change Due to the paramount stupidity of CAIS/Ardent/NAS/COVAD, a change in ISP was required. I hope everything is working again. |
| 07/06/2002 | Converted some pages to ASPX First efforts with dot Net. Converted a few pages to use the new architecture. A re-write may be more precise. It is different. |
| 04/06/2001 | Installed SQL2000 on the WEB Server This was the last ver 7 instance running. I tightened security, so some changes were required to existing software. If anything doesn't work, please email me. I don't believe any changes would have been required if I hadn't changed the logons. |
| 04/05/2001 | MSMQ sample page now works in Netscape Since this is server side code, there was no reason it shouldn't. I converted the VBScript to JAVAScript. |
| 04/04/2001 | Server Side Scriplets These are light-weight COM objects that can be called by VB, C++, and even Delphi. I repackaged the polling code into a server side scriplet. Scriplets are defined using XML! Scriplets can be used to implement behaviors in IE5. |
| 03/11/2001 | Remote Data Services and Shaped Cursors Shaped Cursors can be delivered via the default RDS datafactory. The sub-hierarchies can't be dynamically bound in a web page and they can't be updated automatically. Bummer! |
| 12/20/2000 | MTS and out-of-process DLLs While trying to get RTF and PDF report generation working, I discovered that the WEB User didn't have access to a flexible printer. I needed a flexible printer definition to generate the report even though I didn't print to it. After half a dozen ill-fated attempts at a solution, I parked the print generation stuff in MTS running under an administrative user. An added advantage during test and debugging was that it could be replaced without stopping the web server. |
