Re: Automate Client Access Transfer

Hi, Robert, I aggree with Philipp in that I also believe that going FTP would be
the best choice.

But, if for any reason, you NEED to use the CA Transfer  (*.tto), then there is 
no
problem in starting the transfer from the AS/400 side from a CL program, as 
long as
you set up this way (I have used it and works fine):

1- in the NT side, allow (CA Properties/RemoteCommands) for execution of 
incoming
remote commands. In NT this is slightly different than in W95/98, in the sense
there is a "Service" that has to be started, though you can set it to start
automatically at StartUp time.

2- in the NT side, build the desired Transfer request, and test it online, so 
you
know it works how you like. Then, prepare a procedure, e.g.  "TRANS.BAT" that
includes setting of proper Path for RTOPCB or RFROMPCB (find in CA Directories) 
and
executes RTOPCB with the Transfer name you prepared as a parameter.

3- in the CL, use RUNRMTCMD to the NT Server's IP address, requesting to start 
the
"TRANS.BAT" procedure

Hope this helps.
