Cyrus, FoxAPI = port 55555 AIMAPI = port 45678 An ODBC call will use the API via the driver, therefore uses the port of that API.

I think that is what I needed. Cyrus Message text written by INTERNET:foxboro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >I don't know about the ODBC Driver specifically, but most netFoxAPI and netAIM*API clients use the port number assigned in the appropriate configuration file: NetFoxAPI Server reads /opt/fox/ais/bin/an_init.tcp NetFoxAPI Clients read an an_init.cfg file - sometime from their director= y sometimes from other locations AIM*API Server read /opt/aim/bin/an_init.tcp AIM*API Clients read (I think) an_init.cfg files There is a line in each file that resembles (syntax will vary): *servr =3D 127.0.0.1 45678 /dev/tcp 1024 The port number is the number following the IP address. In this example, = it is 45678. It can be varied to suit the installation. < _______________________________________________________________________ This mailing list is neither sponsored nor endorsed by Invensys Process Systems (formerly The Foxboro Company).
