Remarks
Stopping server
If Client applications are currently used when the server is stopped, an error message ("Server not available") will be displayed during the next action performed by the client application on the server.
Remark: The server may not be restarted immediately once it has been stopped. The operating system does not immediately close the connections already established between the client computers and the server. Simply wait a few minutes (depending on the operating system timeout) before restarting the server.
Managing rights
- To stop the server, the user or user group must have specific rights (hRightsStopServer constant).
- To find out whether a user or a group of users has sufficient rights, use HInfoServerRights.
- To modify the rights granted to a user or user group on the server, use HModifyServerRights.
