Re: Automating SNDNETF and RCVNETF

["Jim Oberholtzer/Computech" <joberhol@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

<*snip>
The method that has been recommended  or employeed is: save to save file;
sndnetf; on the other box...  rcvnetf  and restore the save file.
<endsnip>

The best way to get this done is with a remote command, however, if there
is a time lag between the sending job and the file being received by
distribution services, the send remote command will fail.  You really have
two options:

1)  Change to FTP.  You did not say if TCP/IP was up on your boxes however
if it is, you can accomplish the entire job from your host machine by using
FTP commands.  (my first choice, and will give better performance)

2)  Create a program on the target machine that waits for a message to the
receiving user profile and then goes and does the receive net file.  I have
done this before, and while it takes some effort it works well.
