   Using the BEA Tuxedo Workstation Component

Using BEA Tuxedo System-supplied Clients

wud and wud32 are BEA Tuxedo system-supplied driver programs provided for workstations. These driver programs are based on the standard BEA Tuxedo client programs, ud and ud32, that have been built using the Workstation libraries.

Use wud(1) to send FML buffers to BEA Tuxedo system servers. Use wud32 with fielded FML32 buffers of type FBFR32.

Using wud in a Security Application

If wud is run in a security application, it requires an application password to access the application. If standard input is from a terminal, wud prompts the user for an application password. If you are running the client program from a script, which is a common occurrence with wud, the password is retrieved from the environment variable APP_PW. If this environment variable is not specified and an application password is required, then wud fails.

Do not confuse the APP_PW environment variable with the similar configuration file parameter, SECURITY, for which the value APP_PW enables the security feature.
