Hey RL,
Monday, July 02, 2001, 7:13:15 PM, my MUA believes you used
QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Version 5.1 to write:
Sounds to me like this is more of an OS issue, but here is my stab at
answering your questions.
RA> We copied some scripts from our old server onto our new one. They
RA> are both (Apache) UNIX based and have windows2000 installed on
RA> them.
Not sure I followed that. If the servers are UNIX based, how do they
have Windows2000 installed? UNIX and Windows2000 are *very* different
Operating systems!
RA> The old one had a UID.
That would indicate that at least the old one was UNIX. The M$
(Windows2000) world doesn't usually call it that
RA> We noticed that it was a combination of our username and password
RA> for the old server (so it won't work on the new one).
All the ones I have seen were numbers.
RA> What is a UID and how do we get one?
I don't recall if it is UserID or UniqueID, but that should give you
an idea of what it is. You get one by having an account on a UNIX
machine.
RA> Some of our scripts say it is required for the script to work.
RA> Our Virtual Server Admin says they don't know what it is.
Very possible that the programs are not portable from one OS to
another. You may want to clarify which OS you started with and are
going to, and include the part of your code that is giving the error.
