Making the script available to users

The script file must now be made available to all users.

Copy or upload the login.bzs file that you created and saved on your local workstation to the BlueZone product folder on your web server.

Update the BlueZone distribution file. The Web-to-Host control module must be made aware that a new or updated file is to be made available to the users. This is accomplished by using the BlueZone version control feature. You must modify the distribution file specified in the object tag.

On the web server, navigate to the bz3270 folder, locate the display.e3d file, and open it with Notepad.

This example shows a new configuration file being updated, mfdisp1.zmd, and the login script (login.bzs) being added.

Update the version value of mfdisp1.zmd by changing the 1 to a 2 (or the next higher number).

Add login.bzs,1. Later, if the login.bzs script is updated, the version number must be incremented accordingly.

Default distribution file: display.e3d

bzmd.cab,1
mfdisp1.zmd,1
seaglapl.ttf,1
../seagull.saf,1

Modified distribution file: mfdisp1.zmd showing changes in red

bzmd.cab,1
mfdisp1.zmd,2
seaglapl.ttf,1
../seagull.saf,1
login.bzs,1

Test Access the web page containing the object tag that includes the variables. BlueZone should launch, connect, run the script, and log the user in with values contained in the object tag.
