The client must able to connect to the server to login. If it cannot connect an appropriate
error is displayed. This problem may even be encountered in the case where the client is
on the same machine as the server when the machine is not connected to the network.

If the access to the server is required with the machine in this state, setting the EHX server
as http://127.0.0.1/EclipseServer/ allows this (this is using the network
loopback address).

To determine the EHX Server Machine Name log in to the EHX Server. Click Start and
then Run. Type cmd into the box and click ok. At the command prompt type ipconfig

Using Client/server

Username

Each user is distinguished by Username and users on different clients should always use
different Usernames when logging in to the EHX Server.

Usernames on the EHX server are set up by logging in to the EHX Server and using the
User Management facility as described in chapter 3 to set up and manage users.

If a user on a client attempts to log in to the EHX Server with a Username that is already in
use a warning is shown. If the new user continues, the existing user session is terminated,
and the user who has now been logged out is informed.

Host name

When logging in to an EHX server running in client/server mode use the Options button to
display the server that the user is logging on to and enter the server name explicitly
instead of using the default local host name.
