Command Window and PATH

Restriction: This topic applies only when the Enterprise Server feature is enabled.

Some of the commands described in the procedures in this section require the correct environment. To achieve this, use a Visual COBOL command prompt. This is available from Start > All Programs > Micro Focus Visual COBOL > Tools > Visual COBOL Command Prompt.

After opening the command prompt, use the following command to add the AD LDS installation directory to your path:

path %windir%\ad lds;%path%

The mfds and cas-to-ad commands need to be run from a system with Visual COBOL installed. The ldifde command can be run on the domain controller instead, if you find that more convenient.

UNIX: On UNIX, you will need a terminal session with the appropriate environment settings to run the binaries. The cas-to-ad command is not currently supported; if you have CICS SNT users you wish to import into Active Directory, contact Micro Focus Support for more information.
