The 'rtrdb1' part of the database name is an alias for a sevice defined in the Services file, found in the
same directory as the Hosts file. In applications where there are more than one database defined,
these aliases may be given more descriptive names such as 'nw3000', 'dynamiclogic' or 'corporate'.
Each alias must have a unique service number, and the numbers must be applied consistently across
the application.
