It is a batch job that sends a completion email to the user. The link
is in the body of the email.
Since it is via email and it is a batch job, I don't think STRPCCMD is
an option for me.

Uummm, HTTP. We use jBoss as app server. Anybody know what I need to
do to open up HTTP access to a file in IFS?

folder

Is this link being sent via a web browser? Or via 5250? Or.. how does

this link get from the i to PC?

Can you use STRPCCMD to log on to the folder prior to sending the URL?
Would that work in your scenario?

Alternately, can you change the URL to use HTTP instead of local file
access?

I've an application that will create a csv file in the IFS folder base
on user's request. Upon completion, it will send an email with a link
to the resulting csv file. The link would look something like below:
file://sysName/myfolder/ReqID000000000000038.csv

When user click on this link from outlook email, it will pop a window
saying "cannot find file
'\\sysName\myfolder\ReqID000000000000038.csv'".
This error will only occur if user has not signon to the myFolder yet.
It works fine once user signon the this share folder. Is there a way
to
get around this problem?

Thanks.
