doors.exe on Server

Using Task manager, I see "doors.exe" is running on the DOORS server; one under "system" and one under my partner who had logged out. Anybody got any idea what that is about? Perhaps it is started as part of DWA?

Yes, the DWA "Interoperation Server" is actually DOORS client. On Windows platform you can use the normal Windows client, but of course on Linux/Solaris/Whatever you have to have the correct interop package for that OS, as there are no DOORS clients released for these operating systems.

There can be many of these interop servers running simultaneously, but are they be with different user accounts?

I see two "doors.exe" on the server; one runs under "System" the other under the specific name of the admin running the activate-DWA script. It is a windows OS and I use Remote Desktop Connection to log in.

We are having DWA problems, nobody here knows anything about DWA ... and my hackles are up over this.
