July 2002
PDS Locator is a new Tigress application that allows you to
search for Tigress projects on the network, and set up access to
them for other PDS applications.
This application is especially useful for users who are running
Tigress PDS applications on a Linux laptop computer, where they may
often want to move the laptop between various sites and networks.
These users will now find it much easier to locate and access other
Tigress databases on the network.
This new application includes enhanced security features for the
PDS which means that it will only find projects on Tigress PDS
systems which have been configured to respond to global project
queries. By default, pre- and post-2.4.2 Tigress PDS systems do not
respond to these queries. The system administrator can set up
Tigress PDS systems to respond only to specific machines (based on
the host ID), or to any machine, by using new arguments in the
tigenv and envsrv utilities.
For details on this new application, see PDS Locator in the
Tigress PDS Utilities User Guide (version 4.6.3 of the Tigress
online manuals).
