    Problem Symptoms:
    When trying to search in an external server via Z39.50 protocol with the GUI we get an error message, search is not possible.

    Cause:
    Configuration

    Resolution:
    GUI file .\alephcom\tab\library.ini now looks like this
    ? 
    PCVER PCVER customerserver:6991
    ALEPH ALEPH customerserver:6991
    XXX01 - USMARC Bibliographic BBG01 customerserver:6991
    XXX10 - USMARC Authority BBG10 customerserver:6991
    XXX50 - USMARC Administrative BBG50 customerserver:6991
    XXX60 - USMARC HOL records BBG60 customerserver:6991
    LOC - Library of congress EXT01 z3950.loc.gov:7090
    ? 
    Column 3 should be filled with server/port address of the local library, in this case "customerserver:6991" and not the server/port address from Z39.50 target. The correct access is done via the base name and the according Z39.50-gate configuration in $alephe_tab/z39_gate.
