We on the iSeries are a proud bunch. We defend our beloved machine to the bitter end. We talk about its dependability, security, and excellent software development environment. But even with all that the iSeries has to offer, we still find ourselves left with GUI envy. That is to say that, although we love our iSeries machines, we are often ashamed to admit that we work primarily in a green-screen world. READ MORE >

  Admin Alert: More on Safely Deleting User Profiles
  by Joe Hertvik

In the last "Admin Alert," I presented a checklist of items to review before deleting i5, iSeries, or AS/400 user profiles.

Correction

The article "Use System Naming Convention and Library List with .NET Managed Provider," by Michael Sansoterra, has been corrected. Lorie DuBois, the developer responsible for the DB2 UDB .NET Data provider for iSeries, at IBM Rochester, had a clarification of the following sentence: "As far as I can tell, this functionality is identical to the iSeries Access ODBC driver's ability to set the library list." According to DuBois: "Our functionality is almost the same as the ODBC driver's. The difference is with how we handle the Default Collection property. With ODBC, they add the Default Collection property to the library list. The .NET provider chose not to do this. With the .NET provider, if you want the Default Collection library in the library list, you must specifically include it."
