RE: IFS

["Wilt, Charles" <WiltC@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thomas already mentioned Scott's tutorial for creating an RPG program that writes to the IFS.  It
should be point out that the RPG program is using C functions, so if you'd rather you could just use
C/C++ to write to the IFS from a program running on the System i.

>From the PC side, the System i includes an Server Message Block (SMB) server, called Netserver,  to
support Windows file serving along with a Network File System (NFS) server to support UNIX/Linux file
serving.

Netserver info:

or http://tinyurl.com/6erm8d

NFS:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v5r4/topic/ifs/rzaaxnfs.htm
or http://tinyurl.com/6xawxa


Lastly, the System i also includes both an SMB and a NFS client; which allow program on the iSeries to
access files on a Windows or UNIX/Linux file share.   Thus, you can use the IFS C functions mentioned
before and write directly to a PC server.
