I poked through this notesfile for quite a while, and didn't find
anything about an "Employee listing" tool that is present on both
the ODIXIE cluster and, apparently, systems in the CSC as well. What
tool is the basis for this tool, is it internal, what is it's location,
and do we have the code anywhere?
Thanks

ELF (Employee Locator Facility) has been available throughout the company for a very long time. ELF version 2.2 is VTX-based (you access it via VTX). From VMS, use "VTX ELF". There's at least one front-end/back-end program that massages the VTX stuff for you and makes it look like the old (non-VTX) version. ELF V3 is web-based (you use a web browser). http://www-elf.bb.dec.com/ There's also a "US Digital Employee Browser" at http://truth.mso.dec.com:8001/htbin/emp_www/ I doubt these are publicly accessible tools. Maybe you can get help from the referenced web pages. | |||||

No, ELF I knew about (at whatever level one is allowed to know about
these things). This tool seems to have (I'm not allowed to play with the
DCLTABLES on ODIXIE) a DCL verb "WHO" and an associated helpfile entry
which gives the various qualifiers and parameters. The returned data
is also different from ELF, in that it also lists (for most entries
that I've retrieved) manager's phone number and name.
So it's the WHO employee locator tool (as opposed to other WHO tools
that give extended user information) that I'm looking for. Naturally,
this may not be the _name_ of the tool or package, but just the DCL
verb...
