    Not-logged-on OPAC user gets wrong base (generic "USM01" base)

    Description:
    We just upgraded to version 18. When we connect to the catalog, we are taken to the default, generic ("USM01") OPAC screen rather than our library-specific screen.

    Resolution:
    The default base (and there for the default screen) which a user who is not logged-in connects to in the OPAC is determined by the $usr_library z61_base value for the "ALEPH" z61 record.

    { If the user is not logged-on, the system will look for a z61 "ip profile" matching the ip address; if none, it will use the "ALEPH" profile. }

    It seems that the z61_base is "USM01". It needs to be changed.

    To see the current setting, try:
    select Z61_REC_KEY, Z61_BASE from z61 where Z61_REC_KEY LIKE 'ALEPH%';
