RE: FW: running a command on the IFS from batch.

Angela,  but what operating system is going to execute this .BAT file.  The
OS400 will have a hard time executing a PC program.  USing the STRPCO comand
allows that interface to the PC that can execute that command.  It most
likely will work if you use a NT servers IP address since it would be able
to execute that command from its operating system.  But I don't think you
will have any luck get the Iseries to recognize that command.

Well 192.168.0.1  is our as/400.   I am not really running a job on a
another PC.  Usually I just tell the computer to strpccmd
\\qausteel\home\vmi\vmi.bat   but now I want to run this job at night in a
batch job.  I was hoping to run it by remote command.  I could always move
it from the IFS  (\\qausteel)  and to a server and use that servers IP.  But
is there not a way to run a batch IFS job?

First, I assume that '192.168.0.1' is the address of the pc of which you are
attempting to run a remote
command on, right?

Secondly, this PC is attempting to run a program that is not stored on
itself, but however is stored on a server called qausteel, right?  Even
though the program is stored remotely, it will run the program on the pc
called '192.168.0.1'.

Here is a sample of our use of RUNRMTCMD
RUNRMTCMD  CMD('D:\PVC4XX\UPLOAD.BAT') +
             RMTLOCNAME(&REMOTE *IP) RMTUSER(&USER) +
             RMTPWD(&PASSWORD)

Haven't tried a UNC.  You might have to map a drive.

>                I have been running a program that runs a batch job on
the IFS  by using STRPCO.   However I just changed this to run the CL from
the night scheduler and it doesn't like STRPCO from batch.   So I thought
I could change it to runrmtcmd but it doesn't like this either.   Telling
me my command has an invalid name.
