Limitations
• Map Designer can connect to sources that can be represented as a file or file stream, like WHOIS and HTTP. It cannot connect to interactive session resources, like TELNET or RLOGIN.
• HTTP and FTP are supported. While it is possible to send data to targets using these protocols, the URI structure is somewhat different.
Example
ftp://username:password@server.domain.com/subdirectory/file.asc
• Extract Schema Designer scripts are currently supported as sources only.
• Should you find that your network is slow to respond and Map Designer is timing out before you can connect, go into your cosmos.ini file – under the [UserInfo] section – and add the following line (if it is not already there):
NetworkTimeout=5
Note: The normal default is 5 seconds. If you experience problems connecting, increase the Timeout period to a number greater than 5.
