[Directory]

This section holds the locations of significant paths and or file locations and names used by both the server and client.

The following settings are no longer used and should be deleted:

NetwareMailVolumePath = SYS:MAIL
UNCNetwareMailVolumePath = \\PKF\SYS\MAIL
UpdateUserDataInMailDirectory =0

These setting are only used by MonTel support staff to assist the development of installation of sites:

TimedCaptureOutputFileName = pabxtr.dat

Debugging only: Used by MonTel support staff to capture timed sample data from a PABX.

TimedCaptureInputFileName = pabxintr.dat

Debugging only: Used by MonTel support staff to play back timed sample data from a PABX.

DemoOutUsersPath = ""

Only used by the demo.

DemoOutMainPath = ""

Only used by the demo.

IndexFileLocalPath

Used by: Server.

Max length: 128 characters

Example:

IndexFileLocalPath = "c:\temp"

If this value is set is specified the location of "index place holder" files for various external data files that might be read by MonTel. These files include SMDR datafile by systems that provide Logging files rather than Serial or TAPI output. The IndexFileLocalPath setting will also be used for marking locations and placement of other logging files, for example MONFAX from the FaxMonSv service.

The default will vary on the version of MonTel (or FaxMon) being used. For version 2.11 only, the index file default to "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Netwiz\MonTel". For other versions it is the location pointed to by the "TEMP" environment variable. Typically this is "C:\Documents and Settings\[user login name]\Local Settings\Temp". For DOS systems this would probably be "C:\TEMP".

UsersHomePath

Used by: Client, Server.

Max length: Max length: 128 characters (total of UsersHomePath MainDataFilename UserAppendedPathForCallData should not exceed 140).

Example:

UsersHomePath = f:\users\

Users home path as seen by the MonTel Client. That is each user on their desktop. In many systems this is map rooted, so that the user sees only (for example) "P:\". Contrast this setting with OutputUsersPath (used only by the server).

UserAppendedPathForCallData

Used by: Client.

Max length: 128 characters (total of UsersHomePath MainDataFilename UserAppendedPathForCallData should not exceed 140).

Client Version 2.9.57 onwards

Example:

UserAppendedPathForCallData = ""

This setting is generally not used. However, if users have the my calls in the root of their personal folder, they may inadvertently delete it. To prevent this, the folder can be made to be several "layers" down. should NEVER start with a folder separator. A folder separator is option (as this will be added by MonTel). For example if UsersHomePath = "F:\", MainDataFilename = "PABXDCR.dat" and the user's login name is "David" and UserAppendedPathForCallData = "MonTel\MyCalls", then the path that the MonTel client users to read My Calls will be F:\DAVID\MONTEL\MYCALLS\PABXDCR.DAT.

Note: In version earlier than 2.12.0 you would also need to have set UserAddsUserNameToPath=1. UserAddsUserNameToPath has been removed and it is now always assumed to be 1.

UserHomeDirTruncatedTo

Used by: Client, Server.

Example:

UserHomeDirTruncatedTo = 0

Use this setting if all users names greater than the value set (typically 8) have home directories with the same name as the users name truncated to this number of characters. The Default of 0, causes no truncation to occur. Please note that since the MonTel server is a DOS program, home directories cannot exceed 8 characters.

SaveDataInUsersFolders

Topic creation date: 2008-07-16

Used by: Server

Version 2.12.5 onwards

0 or 1.

Example:

SaveDataInUsersFolders = 1

This setting is 1 by default. When set to 0, the MonTel server no longer updates the call records stored for each user in the users folder, though call records are still recorded in the main call record file.

Under normal circumstances where the client was in use this setting need not be used (or is set to 1). In the situation where only the server is being used, this setting might be used to turn off the creation of call records for each individual user.

MainDataPath

Used by: Client.

Max length: 128 characters

Example:

MainDataPath = c:\pabxsd\data\main

The directory as seen by users who need to access all calls.

CreateNewUserDirectoryIfNeeded

Used by: Server.

Example:

CreateNewUserDirectoryIfNeeded = 0

If Set to 1 then the MonTel Server will create a new user directory if one does not exist in the OutputUsersPath is the Output Users Path for this Server or Volume. Please note, however, that User rights will NOT be set to the user will not be able to see the data unless otherwise set by the Network administrator.

OutputMainDataPath

Used by: Server.

Max length: 128 characters

Example:

OutputMainDataPath = i:\data\montel\main

MonTel SERVER uses this to output the main data file.

In ServerCN and ServerSV this can be a UNC path name.

OutputUsersPath

Used by: Server.

Max length: 128 characters

Example:

OutputUsersPath = F:\Users

MonTel SERVER adds the user's name to this path to output the user data files. The reason this is separate from the User Home Path, is that the drives may be mapped differently for users. For example the user's home path may be MAP ROOTED to F:\

In ServerCN and ServerSV this can be a UNC path name.

MainDataFilename

Used by: Client, Server.

Example:

MainDataFilename = pabxdcr.dat

File name of both the main ('All Calls') and user ('MyCalls') call record files.

MonFaxFileName

Used by: Client, Server.

Example:

MonFaxFileName = faxmon.dat

File name of both the main ('All Calls') and user ('MyCalls') MonFax record files.

UpdateInternalDataInSeparateFile

Used by: Server.

Example:

UpdateInternalDataInSeparateFile = 0

If set to one then internal calls are stored separately from the in and out bound calls (in file name InternalDataFileName below).

InternalDataFileName

Used by: Server.

Example:

InternalDataFileName = internal.dat

File name of internal calls only, that if UpdateInternalDataInSeparateFile = 1 are stored separately from the in and out bound calls. (Some PABX's do not export internal call traffic).

RawDataFilename

Used by: Server.

Max length: 12 characters

Example:

RawDataFilename = pabx.txt

Name of a raw data file for later testing or recovery. See SaveRawData in the [program] section.

TimedCaptureInputFileName

Used by: Debug.

Max length: 12 characters

Example:

TimedCaptureInputFileName =1

Only used by internal Netwiz testing.

TimedCaptureOutputFileName

Used by: Debug.

Max length: 12 characters

Example:

TimedCaptureOutputFileName =1

Only used by internal Netwiz testing.

DemoOutMainPath

Used by: Client.

Max length: 128 characters

Example:

DemoOutMainPath =1

Only used by the Lap top Sales demo.

DemoOutUsersPath

Used by: Client.

Max length: 128 characters

Example:

DemoOutUsersPath =1
