[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Default Z39.50

[Jennifer Lawley]

Yep.  Just emailed Jason and said that missed something somehow.  That would
be the fact that John is in Canada.  That makes a BIG difference.  :)

Okay, I'll keep quiet now.  LOL

Jargon crash -- LOC is Library of Congress. Most catalogers use DLC or
LC

Maybe I'm missing something here (like I said, I haven't been following
the
whole discussion), but you have to have an Authorization from OCLC to
connect through z39.50 to OCLC's database.

Ask one of your catalogers with an OCLC Autho if you can use their autho
to
test your connections.

I didn't think any authorization was required to connect to LOC?

Just a quick question (I haven't been totally following the discussion
so
this may be a stupid question)...are you guys using an OCLC
Authorization
number to connect?

I tried telneting to the port, and it says 
Connected to ilsweb.loc.gov
Escape character is '^]'.

So I am guessing it's working

Oh geez -- yes, thanks for the catch, Jason. Lack of sleep affecting my
brain.

If you want to try telnet (to confirm that access to port 7090 is
actually working), you'll have to emerge netkit-telnetd first:

# emerge netkit-telnetd
# telnet z3950.loc.gov 7090
