The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Hi Paul,
I've never tried to read a file directly from a remote machine because,
frankly, it wouldn't occur to me due to accessibllity and/or performance.
In these cases, I'd use FTP or something on an HTTP server on the remote
side. JTOpen has FTP operations that work; I've even used them between two
Windows machines, no AS/400 involved.
If those options aren't possible for some reason, google "java read
remote file" and you'll see quite a few possibilities, but they do basically
depend on system/network shares or accessibility.
HTH,
Joe Sam

Subject: Read a PC / Windows File From Java on IBM I
From a Java/Tomcat web app running on the IBM i, we are trying to access

are using java.io.File.
Anyone have experience/success with this?
Thanks, Paul Holm
