Create a DirectConnect Server

Use AddServer to set the environment and create the necessary entries in the sql.ini file before starting the DirectConnect server.

AddServer requires two parameters to identify the name of the new server and to provide the port number for the server to listen on. One important limitation of AddServer is that it does not check the sql.ini file for duplicate server names or ports in the same way that DCDirector does.

• AddServer Utility
  Use AddServer to create a server entry in the sql.ini file. It makes changes to the sql.ini file, but it does not verify that the servername or the port number are already being used.
