CLOCK SYSPORT

 

The CLOCK SYSPORT instruction returns a unique system port ID on certain multi-user systems or the standard port ID on all others. The information varies among supported systems as follows:

 

  1. Novell networks return a six digit string.

  2. Netbios networks return a twelve digit string.

  3. If no recognized multi-user system is active, SYSPORT is treated the same as PORT.

  4. Under PLBWIN, the information returned is:

    5.  

    Bytes

    Contain ...

    1-8

    the window handle as a hex value.

    9-20

    a twelve digit adapter id if available. If not available, the network node name is used. If that is not available, this field is not returned.
