Extended SNA Security Codes were not implemented by some SNA subsystem providers. This may affect customers using one or more of the following:
A new DLL, called db2cpic2.dll has been provided in order to support
Extended SNA Security Codes in these environments. The new DLL was
originally packaged with FixPak 1 for DB2 Universal Database Version 5.
It is identical to the original DLL db2cpic.dll, except that it
includes a call to extract secondary information (cmesi()).
Table 11. Which version of db2cpic.dll to use?
| If you have this SNA subsystem | On Windows NT use | On Windows 95 use |
|---|---|---|
| IBM Communications Server for Windows NT | db2cpic2.dll (new) | db2cpic.dll (old) |
| IBM Personal Communications for Windows (also Integrated SNA Support provided with DB2 Connect Personal Edition) | db2cpic2.dll | db2cpic.dll |
| Microsoft SNA Server | db2cpic.dll | db2cpic.dll |
If DB2 fails to load db2cpic2.dll, you can do the following in the directory where it has been installed:
copy db2cpic2.dll db2cpic2.bak copy db2cpic.dll db2cpic2.dll
This will make db2cpic2.dll the same as db2cpic.dll.
| Note: | If you wish to use Extended Security Support with DB2 UDB Version 5.0 on Windows 95, we recommend using IBM Personal Communications (PComm) for Windows 95 Version 4.2 (not Version 4.1). Copy db2cpic.dll to db2cpic.bak and copy db2cpic2.dll to db2cpic.dll. This will make db2cpic.dll the same as db2cpic2.dll. |
