One2one Document management system. Integrating Intergraphs Digital Print Room into a web based document management system. Perl5 Asp Jscript VBscript Access.
The system used two web servers, one internal and the other external. The internal machine holds the 40,000 drawings database and publishes the CAD drawings via Intergraph's Digital Print Room software. This creates a compressed version of the AutoCAD drawing which can then be viewed and printed by the engineer via the web. There is a complete document control using a web based front end linked via odbc to several schemas. At relevant times all the changes made to the internal system with the published CAD drawings are ftp'd across to the external system using AT on the NT4 box to update the external database and access rights. The NT access rights are used to mange the user access rights along with a control database for the level of use for each user.
The main core of the program controlling all the publishing and ftp management was written in perl5. This was integrated into asp pages with jscript and vbscript.

Created Mailing List in Perl5 Linux integrating via DBI into a CSV.
