This was because I already wrote a client and server for our Unix systems, and a vms client would keep things fairly simple. The sad thing about this is that I only have VAX-C manuals, and that I want to write it in DEC-C. The sample client in SYS$HELP is also in VAX-C and just doesn't compile. Now I know my question isn't anything difficult if you are a VMS expert, but I'm not. If there is anyone who can help me with my question, thanks in advance.

Keywords: NobleNet, Client/Server, Remote Procedure Call, RPC, ONC, XDR, PRESS RELEASE For Immediate Release For Further Information, Please Contact: Alex Valentine Director of Product Management NobleNet, Inc. Voice: (508) 460-8222 FAX: (508) 460-3456 e-mail: alexv@noblenet.com NobleNet Secure(TM) Provides Client/Server Application Security New Product Features Patented "Snap-in" Security Module Architecture Boston, January 21, 1997 -- NobleNet announces the availability of its initial entry into the market for securing applications that pass data over networks. Based on industry standards, NobleNet Secure is a highly flexible, modular approach to building secure client/server systems. Using a patented "snap-in" architecture, developers can implement pre-packaged security algorithms or integrate security modules of their choice, including custom algorithms for authentication, privacy, and integrity. Built with an open set of software interfaces, the domestic version of NobleNet Secure includes DES, RIVC4, XOR, MD5 and SHA modules. Application Programming Interfaces(APIs) allow for the integration of custom encryption algorithms, hardware-based smart cards, and both public and private key authentication. NobleNet Secure is a key element of the Optix(TM) document management system developed and marketed by Blueridge Technologies. "For our cross-platform, Internet architecture we needed a state-of-the-art security model and NobleNet Secure was the right solution," said Keith Ellis, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Blueridge. A major design goal of NobleNet Secure is to provide a general purpose interface that accommodates any encryption method, and to do it in a way that minimizes the performance impact on the application. Higher levels of security typically impose application performance penalties. Solving performance problems with specialized hardware or higher powered computers can be an expensive solution. NobleNet's approach to security recognizes that not all application data requires encryption. Unlike most other implementations, NobleNet Secure allows security to be turned on or off on a per-call basis allowing developers to optimize the balance between security and performance. With NobleNet Secure, only those calls that require security are encrypted, leaving all other data to pass over the network without performance penalty. Being selective at the call coding level provides the developer an opportunity to construct secure applications that might not be possible with other approaches. "NobleNet Secure is ideal for programmers that want to get a quick immersion into secure client/server computing with software that requires very little effort to learn," said Mark Wedge, one of the principal programmers on Business Travel Solutions (BTS), SABRE Decision Technologies' (SM) new high performance on-line corporate travel booking and management project. The SABRE Group is now an independent company with its majority stock holder being AMR Corporation. "The software has a wealth of real-world capability that provides the developer with thorough control of just what is secured and what is passed without encryption. NobleNet Secure's flexibility saves development time and results in higher performing secure applications." NobleNet Secure works with any industry-standard Open Network Computing (ONC) implementation including NobleNet's recently announced RPC 3.0, the world's most advanced RPC environment. NobleNet Secure is currently available on Windows 3.1, 95, and NT, and on most popular UNIX platforms. Pricing is $2500 per platform which includes five end-user seats for application deployment. Additional deployment seats sell in 10, 100, and 1000 unit packages. For Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) desiring to integrate the software within their own product, NobleNet offers a percentage royalty pricing arrangement. NobleNet offers client/server middleware for procedural and object paradigms. Incorporated in 1991, NobleNet is the world leader in Remote Procedure Call (RPC) technology and has won numerous awards for its product family.

This is typically the reason for this error. We don't recommend you set the version limit for these files as that causes the $CREPRC requests we issue to fail at times (if there are more workers active than the version limit placed on the file). If you must place a version limit, I'd recommend setting it to something like 2 or 3 times the maximum number of workers you may have active. Or, perhaps another solution is to edit the PURVEYOR:PURVEYOR_WORKER.COM to do a PURGE/KEEP=n on the LOG file. BTW: Purveyor V1.2 has been out for a while. I'd highly recommend you upgrade to it. V2.0 is currently in beta test and will be out soon. For details on V1.2, please see http://vms.process.com/.
