I have the MQSeries client installed on a server and have developed a VB6 application (stored on the server) that sends information from the program to a remote queue. Two Issues:
(1) Right now, I have to install the MQ client on each of the clients using this VB6 application - is there a better way?
(2) When the clients run my application, it trys to connect to the MQSeries queue using the NT username of that machine. I would like to use one default/group username, but I am unsure how to override this.
Any advice would be appreciated.
-Thanks |

1) No.
2) set an MCAUser on the Svrconn channel.

Thank you for your reply. I am unsure on how to "set an MCAUser on the Svrconn channel". I am not an experienced users of MQ.
If setup, does this ignore the machine's authenication or accept a hard-coded username/password?
Thanks again. |

Right-Click on your Server Conn channel. Goto MCA tab. There is a field called MCA User ID where you can specify MCA user name.

I only have the MQ client installed locally. The remote server (of which I am not an administrator) has the actual queue installed. Can I still make these changes on my client version? Can I force several local clients to use one username other than that of their NT login?
Thanks |

There is an environment variable that can be used to specify user-id, password on client box. But, it's not supported on UNIX, Windows 2000, XP platform.
Please refer to Chapter 7 in MQ Clients manual for more information.
