    Increase length of username variable.  Can now have usernames up to 193 length.
    
3.  SECLIC

    Reworked some sections to prevent infinite loops when looking for license info.



Changes in previous releases: 23.01 1. SECLIC Added new feature to SECLIC to get license counts and expiration dates for currently installed certificate (see wiki page: SECLIC for more info). Requires Comet Security Server version 23.0 2. DOCMGR Added retries when creating archive list for when there could be an error due to network communication or filesystem hangup. 3. MTB Added ability to supress launching notepad for list files when compiling with Comet Anywhere. For command file, use "SUPPRESSNOTEPAD" on its own line before the listfile line. For compiling directly, include an "A" in the compiler options. 22.01 1. QMONITOR Fixed a bug where previously, only the first user logging in would SECURE the partition. Subsequent logins now call SECURE for each user that logs in. 2. DMIMP Fixed a bug where if the display name had no file extension (i.e. no ".csv") then the program could cause an error. 3. EMAILPTR, EMLPTR32 Modified email printer (both comet16 and comet32) to consolidate "TO" and "CC" email addresses into one long header line for each. Old version was sending a single header line per address, breaking RFC5322 compliance and emails were getting bounced from some SMTP servers. RFC5322 NOTE: To comply with required and recommended RFC5322 guidelines, the header lines for to/cc are grouped into sets of 80 characters, with multiple lines being separated by a CRLF and single space " " beginning each new line. Comet32 allows for an endless number of email addresses, due to dynamic strings. Comet16 is restricted to 20 lines of 80 characters each. 20.03 1. CAPI Issue an error if an attempt is made to create an object file with a name exceeding 8 characters in length. 20.02 1. DocMgr Corrected a bug in the Import function that validates a user-input date and time for the document. 20.01 1. CMON32, CMONITOR Update IDFILE with today's date for IDMAINT enhancement to show "Last Seen" information. IDMAINT change requires UTL version 20.01 or higher. 19.02 1. EmailPtr, EmlPtr32, EPrompt Increased the length allowed for the smtp password from 64 to 254. This is in response to a report of a marketing email service that imposed a very long password. 19.01 1. EmailPtr Added '>c>' to display of CONTROL commands in the email log file. 2. New DES program for Comet32 Email. EmlPtr32 will allow you to write records longer than 254 bytes to text and html email printers. To use it, change the DES program name for the email printer in your Comet.ini file from EmailPtr to EmlPtr32, then run SYSGEN to update the .cfg file. 17.02 1. DocMgr Export with delete option should now process all the selected documents. 17.01 1. SecSrv Fixed a problem that prevented info for more than 12 users from being displayed. 17.00 1. DocMgr More efficient code for saving the user registry settings before popping up the Print all dialog. No longer allow Print Text Docs to remote # printer for CometAnywhere clients. This can cause a Comet crash. Use a network printer instead. 2. QMONITOR Corrected a problem that prevented NOVA from being run to create the required help files. 16.04 1. QMONITOR Now closes LUNs used for keystroke playback file and the password file before any RUN. Previously it was possible to get E34 on LUN 3 or 5 after a RUN. 16.03 1. QMONITOR Corrected a problem preventing the keystroke playback from working on sessions that didn't yet have the keystroke file created. This problem was introduced in REL 16.00. 2. DocMgr Only transfer the toolbar file if it's out of date. 16.02 1. DES programs EXTNOL and HTMLNOL Eliminated unnecessary file copy to $(CATEMP) during PostClose since we're not launching the document file. 2. DocMgr Eliminated an E32 when using Delete after Export and the file's name was changed. 16.01 1. SS (UltraEdit Source Search) Recompiled it using current compiler to be compatible with proc parameter changes made in Comet version 501. This new version will also run properly with older versions of Comet. 2. SYSGEN Added support for a new GATEWAY type to be introduced later this year. 3. DocMgr Print All Added a PAUSE of 2 ticks in "forever mode" printing to avoid 100% CPU spike in archive inquire loop. 16.00 1. QMONITOR, CMONITOR, and CMON32 Eliminated possible endless E99 loop if IDFILE was damaged. 15.04 1. QMONITOR Added a User column to the partition display that identifies the name of the user. Eliminated a possible security lockout that could occur if the "program to be run" for a password was QMONITOR but it was not spelled in upper case in the security file. 15.03 1. QMONITOR A possible endless loop of E99s has been eliminated. This could happen if the keystroke playback file (MON-Txx) had been erased outside of Comet. 2. IB The source file is now closed after a Comet32 compile so that an outside editor (such as Notepad) can be used to make changes without having to exit the IB program. 15.02 1. SecLic Adjusted the size of a static text box. 15.01 1. SecSrv Introduction of a new utility, SecSrv, which will display information about all the users currently connected to the Security Server. It also provides the license retrieval and installation options of SecLic. This program may be run from any Comet client. It requires Comet32 and Comet Services version 15.00 or higher. 15.00 1. QMONITOR Changes to accessed DABs now works properly for Comet16. 2. DocMgr Prevented a crash on some systems when printing all text documents.
