SpectroGRAPH
Known SpectroGRAPH Anomalies in SPECTRUM 6.5
SPECTRUM Software Release Notice Page 74
Solution: Create a Home Directory for each User Profile using the
Windows NT User Manager. This ensures that each user has a unique
home directory, unless the Windows NT administrator set it to the same
value for each user.
Problem 7: On Windows NT 4.0 Server with Service Pack 6a, when you
double click a SPECTRUM .prf file, the operating system mistakenly
launches Microsoft’s Content Advisor for Internet Explorer 5.0. There is a
Registry entry under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT that identifies .prf files as
“PICSRules Files” (also a .prf) which conflicts with SPECTRUM’s .prf files.
To edit a SPECTRUM .prf file, open it with a text editor. Selecting and
opening the .prf file has no adverse effects.
Secondly, another conflict exists between .crt files created by Search
Manager when exporting a Search, and Microsoft’s .crt files which
identifies Microsoft’s Security Certificates. Search .crt files cannot be
edited manually and should not be directly opened. This extension conflict
was resolved with the release of SPECTRUM 6.0rev1.
Solution: These problems will be addressed in a future release of
SPECTRUM.
Problem 8: When some applications on a Solaris workstation are remotely
displayed on a Windows NT workstation you can no longer use the keypad
to enter numbers into an IP address field or any other field requiring
numeric input.
Solution: This is a known bug with Neuron Data and not with
SPECTRUM. Neuron Data has been made aware of it and they have
assigned Bug #: 9458 to the problem.
Problem 9: When a SPECTRUM 6.5 version of SpectroGRAPH is
connected to a 5.0rev1 SpectroSERVER, some applications may not be
able to secure a connection.
Solution: SPECTRUM does not support new connections of
SpectroGRAPH 6.x clients to a SPECTRUM 5.0rev1 SpectroSERVER. Many
applications will not connect and those that do will render unpredictable
behavior. SPECTRUM supports neither a 6.0.0, 6.0.1, 6.0.2, 6.0.3, nor a
6.5 SpectroGRAPH connection to pre-6.0rev0 SpectroSERVERS.
