Re: Remote Communication - HELP!

[Carl Galgano <cgalgano@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Couldn't the batch job on AS400 #2 read/write to a DDMF that is defined on
AS400 #1 that is attached to the current Line/ctl/dev, or, why not have the
batch job actually run on AS400 #1, but read the data to send/receive via a
DDM file on AS400#2.  If you are worried about users on AS400#2 starting
the job, you could use RUNRMTCMD or SBMNETJOB to actually have AS400 #2
start the batch job on AS400 #1 and read/write the data via DDM to AS400 #2.

Hope that made some sense.
Carl
