NT Registry commands may fail on AppServer
Commands that read the Windows NT Registry may fail on AppServer.
The commands GET-KEY-VALUE and PUT-KEY-VALUE (page 22-26 of
the version 8.2B Programming Handbook) will fail when used
on AppServer without database security.
When the AppServer does a connect to the database and you do
not pass the -U and -P startup parameters, the login to the
database is SYSTEM. In other words, the connection is made
with no security on the NT server. Windows NT security will
prohibit any reads or writes of the Windows Registry.
If -U and -P values with appropriate permissions are used
the GET-KEY-VALUE and PUT-KEY-VALUE commands will work as
expected.
