HOST specifies additional machines outside the immediate network to be
searched by the client library. It also disables UDP broadcasts on TCP/IP
clients. On the server, the search is carried out to avoid starting a server with
a duplicate name.
For TCP/IP, the hostname or a dot-separated IP address may be used. For
SPX and IPX, an address of the form a:b:c:d:e:f/g:h:i:j is used, where
a:b:c:d:e:f is the node number (Ethernet card address) of the server, and
g:h:i:j is the network number. The server prints this addressing information
during startup if the
switch is used. In addition, the application writes this
-Z
information to its logfile if Debug is set to TRUE and LogFile is specified.
You can use a semicolon-separated list of addresses to search for more than
one machine. Also, you can append a port number to an IP address, using a
colon as separator. Alternatively, you can specify the host and server ports
explicitly, as in Host=a:b:c:d:e:f;ServerPort=k.
IP is a synonym for HOST.
No additional machines.
The following connection string fragment instructs the client to look on
the machines "kangaroo" and 197.75.209.222 (port 2369) to find a
database server:
Links=tcpip(IP=kangaroo;IP=197.75.209.222:2369)
