Editing Progress Dynamics files

If you connect to the Progress Dynamics Repository database over a network, you must edit your services file to specify the service name and a port number for the icfdb Repository database.

To edit your services file:

In a text editor, open your services file. By default, the services file is in the C:\WINNT\System32\drivers\etc\directory. (In Windows XP Professional, the directory is C:\WINDOWS\System32\drivers\etc\.)
Assign port numbers, using the following format:

service_name   port_number/tcp

The service_name is the name you specify with the -S parameter when you start the database. The port_number is a unique four-digit number (one that is not already assigned to another service in the file). For example:

icfdb   8000/tcp

Add an additional line for each of your application databases, using a unique service name and a unique port number for each one.
Save and close the services file.
Caution: You cannot start two Repositories if both have the same service name (icfdb for example). If you need to run more than one Repository database, each version must have a different service name and a different port number.
