RE: IFS

["Greenwood, Patricia" <pgreenwo@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am getting similar responses and am about ready to abandon this option.  I will visit with Steve when he gets in (San Diego time) and see if we can pursue the ftp method.  You will then be responsible for doing whatever with each file I send and I can name them uniquely. Do you still want one record at a time or would you prefer I batch them....maybe send every 15 minutes.

Hi Pat,

When you say "IBM O/S 4.1", I assume you mean OS/400 V4R1.  (The latest
operating system version is IBM i 6.1, but that scheme does not apply to
old releases, and in any case, it's "IBM i" not "IBM O/S".)

AS/400 NetServer (the OS/400 tool that acts as a Windows Networking
(SMB) server) was released in V4R2.

The IFS became available starting with V3R1, and became usable from RPG
starting in V3R2.  So you can write files to the IFS if you like, but to
access them from Windows you'll have to use other tools like Client
Access or FTP.

Note that V4R1 reached end-of-life in May 2000.  (More than 8 years ago).

If you wish to discuss this further, please try the System iNetwork
forums or Midrange-L, as this does not appear to be related to FTPAPI or
HTTPAPI.

I find the mention of the IFS in the AS/400 file menus but can't come up with the correct command to get this done nor know how to instruct them for the procedure on the PC side.  All of this is being done remotely and I'm stumped.
