Hi all

 
The GCIC application has been up for the  Last two days and no critical
issues reproted.
 
Th at qualifies as  a  " BETA "
 
As promised - Here is the link ---
 
http://rocsys.dyndns.org:1200/
 
That will get you to a page on My WebSite
Just a directory structure not a real website..
 
Go to the GCIC directory and you should see: 
 
GCIC_aug16_15_48pm.zip
<http://rocsys.dyndns.org:1200/gcic/GCIC_aug16_15_48pm.zip>  
 
 
This is not an FTP site so either right click on it and download the target
to your machine or run the ZIP and extract to your machine
Very small - an AWS tape
 
As far as the application is concerend not many  directions etc. yet.
 
but
1) I would suggest loading the tape to a R/O disk somewhere
2) Give the machine you want to run the GCIC application R/O access to that
disk
3) there is a profile EXEC on the tape - two FILEDEFS in the profile EXEC
  One points to a copy of the directory - used for validating signons - Does
not have to be the real directory
  The other points to the MSG table which is on the TAPE
4) copy of the real directory is useful for doing links and access etc.. If
you have anything you don't  want people to see just comment them out.
 
The machine should be at least 8 meg and no more than 15
It must be running in BC mode
Copy the  " sets "  from the profile EXEC example for MSG IMSG WNG EMSG Copy
the sets for TIMER and RUN
 
Thats it
 
to start the app type GCIC  or put in the profile exec 

Application will automatically Diconnect the console when it starts
 
Machine will continue to run in Disconnected mode
D machine and you are working --- (maybe)
 
to stop the Machine logon to the disconnected machine
 
you will get  reconnected - Hit enter and the appliation will stop .
 

If you must  --- Enter CP and do a LOGOFF - that will also kill it.
 
If you manage to get an abend - check the RDR - I send mini formatted dumps
to the reader for analysis if I can.
Sometimes the machine contnues but if you killed critical storage then it
will probably die.
 
Available for questions all day and forever but remember that this version
is a "BETA" . 
So if you want to make changes work with me.
