RE: PC/AS400 Transfers from AS400

[Roger Boucher <RBoucher@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am also a newbie and doing the very same thing.

You definately have to issue STRPCO first.
Although I was having trouble at first when I tried to put in the full path
of RTOPCB.EXE, my trouble went away when I just reduced it to RTOPCB.EXE
without the path.  I never did take the time to find out why.

Here is what I have, and it IS working...

STRPCO                                               
MONMSG     MSGID(IWS4010)                            
CHGVAR     VAR(&TRANSFER) VALUE('RTOPCB.EXE +        
             Y:\LEX2000\SPF\JDEDWNLD\' *CAT &MSGDTA +
             *TCAT '.TTO')                           
STRPCCMD   PCCMD(&TRANSFER)                          

Where &MSGDTA is the name of the transfer I need to run.
Hope it helps.

Subject: PC/AS400 Transfers from AS400


Hi,

I am trying to write an AS400 CL program to automate file transfers to the
PC for my users from the AS400 side. We do not have static IP addresses, so
FTP is out. I am attempting to use the following command:

STRPCCMD PCCMD('C:\Progra~1\IBM\Client~1\rtopcb.exe C:\download\test.tto')

Am I using the correct syntax? do I need to set up this command with STRPCO
or something similar for the PC?

When the CL program is run, I receive no errors, yet, the file is never
transferred. We are accessing the AS400 over an NT network with Client
Access on the users' PCs. (I am assuming the AS400 knows to use the C:\ of
the PC that the user is on.) Also, the test.tto file works fine when run
from the PC side.

I am a newbie, so, don't assume I know what I am doing. Help, please.

Thanks,
