Run the Palm program on Palm OS

This section shows you how to run the Palm program on the Palm OS device and connect to the WebSphere MQ Everyplace server.

Palm OS 3.1 and Windows NT

  1. With RAS and the AWT WebSphere MQ Everyplace server running, place the palm in its cradle.
  2. From the Applications screen, double-click the Starter application.

    The WebSphere MQ Everyplace code runs, makes a network connection, and puts a message to the server queue manager. A series of trace messages run on the server as the message is put. The program finishes when the basic user interface appears on the Palm screen.

  3. To check if the message was delivered, look in folder where the queue manager keeps its messages. The message should be in the folder for the target queue. If you used the ExampleQM and put the message to the SYSTEM.DEFAULT.LOCAL.QUEUE, the message is found in ExampleQM\Queues\ExampleQM\SYSTEM.DEFAULT.LOCAL.QUEUE.

Palm OS 3.5 and Windows 2000

  4. Type Exit and press Enter to leave the command prompt.
  5. To check if the message was delivered, look in the folder where the queue manager keeps its messages. The message should be in the folder for the target queue. If you used the ExampleQM and put the message to the SYSTEM.DEFAULT.LOCAL.QUEUE, the message is found in ExampleQM\Queues\ExampleQM\SYSTEM.DEFAULT.LOCAL.QUEUE.

The WebSphere MQ Everyplace code runs, makes a network connection, and puts a message to the server queue manager. A series of trace messages run on the server as the message is put. The program finishes when the basic user interface appears on the Palm screen.

You can change the RAS configuration by replacing show with set in the previous commands, and appending a question mark. For example, the following allows you to set the mode that determines client dial-in authentication:

netsh>ras set authmode ?
set authmode[mode=]STANDARD|NODCC|BYPASS
