Hello
I have been trying to get the graphical socket server client -sxaceclient-
to work (the text version -saceclient- works just fine).
After starting the server with an assigned portnumber in the region
recommended (e.g.23600), when I try to get the graphics client up in the
foreground
bin.SOLARIS_4_RELEASE/sxaceclient myservername -port 23600 /data/base/home/directory
I get this reply:

and a grey box with the following message:
'connection to server, port 0 failed. sorry please check wspec/server.wrm'
I am not prompted for username and password as I am when I run
the text client. Checking wspec/server.wrm doesn't really help me much, but see below...
Clicking on the continue option in the warning box brings up the graphical
interface to the database anyway (but obviously not running through the
server?). Checking my ACeDB Workshop notes shows that xaceclient is/was
experimental now/then. Is the above what you would expect to happen? Can I
have multiple users running the graphics client, and how do I get a
username password prompt, or will I just have to wait until this has been
developed further?
Best wishes,
Anette
PS: Running Solaris8, actual database was made with ACEDB Version 4_7g
some time ago, and so the wspec/server.wrm file is based on this version, too.
