Tech Tip: The option Register Clients at Startup VS. the command REGISTER CLIENT
PRODUCT: 4D | VERSION: | PLATFORM: Mac & Win
Published On: March 27, 2002

Compatibility: 6.5.x and 6.7.x
Platforms: Windows and Mac OS

The option Register Clients at Startup in the Database Properties and the command REGISTER CLIENT serve the same purpose. They both let 4D Server register Clients.

The option Register Clients at Startup option will register Clients when they connect to the 4D Server database. The name of the Client's workstation is used to register.

The command REGISTER CLIENT is also used to register Clients. It can be executed anytime while 4D Clients are connected to the server. However, this command allows you to use any name for the "registration" process. In some cases, you may want to use the name of the current user.
