Does anyone know how to set up the shell window to work remotely? I have turned on the Telnet service on the cloverleaf box and I can connect, however, it doesn’t seem that any of the environment variable are being loaded so I cannot run any of the hci… commands. I am using a Windows 2003 server and Windows XP client. Thanks.

Thanks a ton for the reply.
We don’t have a user called hci. Do you mean hciuser? I tried that user and was able to log in. Then I tried to run mktclindex on the tclprocs folder to reindex the procs, and it didn’t work. It works if I do this from the actual server. So, I’m thinking the environment is still not totally set up.

We run the Cloverleaf server on an AIX system.
There is a user called hci that is setup on the server during Cloverleaf install.
When logging in as the hci user in AIX, there is a .profile file that runs and sets up the environment variables.
Here is a quote from the .profile file……
# This file is used to set up a per-user login environment. Since this# .profile is in the hci user’s home directory, it is used to set up the
# environment for the hci user.
Found this in the Windows system install instructions.
hciuser accountThe hciuser account must be created before Cloverleaf

Um, that is what I am referring to. On a remote client the shell doesn’t set up all th environment stuff needed to work correctly. On the server it works fine, but I would rather not have to go to the server every time I need to do something through the shell. Is there anybody out there working with a windows Cloverleaf server that knows how to set this up correctly?

From Microsofts Tech site (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc730627%28WS.10%29.aspx):
To allow Telnet Client to send an environment variable
1.
Open Registry Editor. Click Start, and then type regedit in the Start Search box.
2.
If the User Account Control dialog box appears, confirm that the action it displays is what you want, and then click Continue.
3.
In the navigation pane, open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareMicrosoft.
4.
If the key TelnetClient does not exist, then create it. To do so, right-click Microsoft, then click New, and then click Key.
5.
Type TelnetClient as the name of the new key.
6.
Right-click TelnetClient, click New, and then click Multi-String Value.
7.
Type AllowedEnvVariables as the name of the new entry.
8.
In the details pane, double-click the new AllowedEnvVariables name.
9.
In the Edit Multi-String dialog box, type the names of the environment variables that the Telnet server must be able to query on this client. Type each variable name on a new line.
10.
Click OK to save your completed list.

Ah ok, I thought you were trying a telnet session from a command prompt. I now understand the problem: you can open a shell window from the IDE on the server, but not from IDE on the workstation.
We have a small Windows server with CL5.6 on it and we always work from the server. I have installed the 5.6 client on a Win XP workstation to run the IDE from there. When starting a shel window from the workstation, a Telnet-box appears, but disappears again immediately.
So it doesn’t work for me either. But my problem is that I am not allowed to telnet to this windows server. When I try to telnet from a command prompt on the workstation, I get a ‘Can’t connect’ error message. And I’m not able to change this, as this will be a security issue.
Weird thing is, that if you run a command prompt on the server, you can’t invoke hci-commands as well, even though you’re logged on as hciuser. You will need to start a shell window in the IDE for this to work; it sets a lot of variables that way.
Maybe you can try to add the required variables to the environment of hciuser.

Was this issue ever resolved? I’m on a Windows 2008 R2 Standard server and would like to have this setup.
Currently, when I click on the Shell Window in the IDE it will prompt me to enter my user ID/password. Our server is using HCIUSER/*******. I can telnet into the server but the environment variables aren’t automatically set. I’d have to manually type this in every time.

Hi,
Maybe this will help?
Code:cd ITPSquovadxqdx5.3integratortest_prod
call setroot c:ITPSquovadxqdx5.3integrator test_prod
# test_prod is the thread folder name
hciprocstatusI use it, when I want to perform a hci command from a Windows command line (but on the QDX server).
