Verifying the interfaces file entry

After you update the interfaces file, view the file to verify that your entry is correct.

The location of the Replication Server interfaces file is %SYBASE%\ini\sql.ini for Windows and $SYBASE/interfaces for UNIX, where %SYBASE% and $SYBASE are the locations of the Replication Server installation.

On UNIX, in interfaces:

server_name
master protocol machine_name port_number
query protocol machine_name port_number

On Windows, in sql.ini:

[server_name]
master=protocol,machine_name,port_number
query=protocol,machine_name,port_number

where:

Examples

The following are examples of interfaces entries for the RepConnector connection:

On Windows:

[RepConnector]
master=TCP,localhost,7000
query=TCP,localhost,7000

On UNIX:

RepConnector
master tcp ether localhost 7000
query tcp ether localhost 7000

NoteIf you plan to create more than one RepConnector connection, each entry to the interfaces file must have a unique name and port number.
