We use to use the IFS directory over windows shares, but it was a bear
to try to get running once the PC we used it on died. Same symptons as
you describe. We found an easier way without having to load any software
on the PC. It had been on the PC so long we could figure out how we got
it working to shart with.

We put lots of things down to the pc to burned on to a DVD.
Mastered Iseries Save Libraries.
Save files for using FTP on the way back up.
Data files that can come back to the Iseries using the copy stream file
commands.

We just create a share name "c0203dvd on a PC named c0203 on the
network. The share is actually to a multi-level subfolder.

Then on the Iseries we add a link

addlnk obj('/qntc/c0203/CDPREPDVD') newlnk('CDPREPDVD')

Then in cl programs we can use the link name 'c0203dvd' to
read/write/delete an file using the share name.

For instance:
RMVLNK OBJLNK('/CDPREPDVD/SYS200.LIB')
Deletes a file named sys200.lib from the PC before a new one is written

CPYTOSTMF FROMMBR('QSYS.LIB/JUNK.LIB/sys200SAVF.FILE')
TOSTMF('/QNTC/C0203/CDPREPDVD/sys200.SAVF') STMFOPT((*REPLACE)
CVTDTA(*NONE) ENDLINFMT(*FIXED)

Replaces an as400 savefile on the PC.

This bypasses the IFS since want the stuff on a PC and not still on the
AS400 DASD.

subject: Mount IFS directory over windows share

Has anyone been able to use Windows Services for Unix to
provide an IFS
share to an iSeries? We are running V5R3 and Windows XP
and/or 2003. I
have installed the Windows Services for Unix on my PC running
XP PRO. I
have created a Unix Share and I can successfully mount the
share over an
empty IFS directory. However I get a permission denied whenever I try
to access the IFS Directory. The logs show the mount but not the
connect attempts.
