PROFS: Consequences of XEDITing a Config File (86151)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Mail Gateway to IBM PROFS and OfficeVision 3.2
This article was previously published under Q86151

SUMMARY

Using XEDIT to edit any of the Microsoft Mail gateway's configuration files should not cause any problems, because it is not possible to edit the files while the gateway is running.

Once the gateway VM ID is logged on and running the gateway program, you cannot logon again to the same VM ID. The VM administrator can also ensure that no other VM ID has the ability to link to the disks that contain the gateway's configuration files. The combination of these two factors effectively prevents anybody from XEDITing the files while the gateway is running.
