RE: Transferring files from NT to System/36

Keith,

We have the exact same setup here at Rogers Water Utilities.  We use Client
Access to move files to and from the AS/400 and use a Network Resource
Directory (HELP DDM, option # 3) on the virtual System/36 to point the
System/36 file name to the directory and name on the AS/400.  Programs on
the AS/400 and System/36 can both use the same file without having to move
it to the System/36.  To use this, you need to make sure you have ILAN up
and operational on the AS/400 and the System/36.

Jim,

No, we can not use any of the OS/400 commands because we are not using 36
environment on the AS/400.  The S/36 is set up as a virtual machine on the
AS/400.  Once a user is working in the S/36 the operating system is still
SSP and any files on the AS/400 can not be accessed.  Only files on the S/36
can be accessed.  The two machines act as if they were totally independent
even though the S/36 is really only an object on the AS/400.  Does that make
more sense??

Regards,

Keith.
