Start and connect

[lord_icon]

Greetings,
I have an OpenEdge db (10.1) sat on my box (windows).
How do I connect to it across the network?
I think I need to start / piggy back a service.
Then what syntax do I require to connect to it?
I am thinking a shortcut to prowin32 supplying the different parameters eg -db, -p, without the -1!!!
TIA

Start a database server with a TCP connection (use Progress Explorer)

on the other machine in the pf file you use to start your progress client:

-db <dbname> -NHS TCP <your computer name or IP Address> <port number set up in Progress Explorer on your machine>

or in a program that is run on the other machine:

CONNECT <dbname> -NHS <your computer name or IP Address> <port number set up in Progress Explorer on your machine>.
