RE: CA Express and the IFS

To map to the IFS (or QDLS, etc), you must have NetServer running. _Client
Access Express for Windows - Setup V4R4_ (SC41-5507-00), pages 29-30 has
these details.

After NetServer is running, you must use Operations Navigator to create
"shares" for people to view. (At least this is how I did it.) You should
have installed all OpsNav components when you installed CAE. Go into OpsNav,
then your AS/400, then File Systems. Right click on File Shares (under File
Systems), then Open AS/400 NetServer. 

Click on AS/400 Netserver (in the new window) if it's not open, then Shared
Objects. All users running CAE have the opportunity to map to these shares.
From here, you can create a share: Right click on SHared Objects, then New,
then File. In my example, I created a share name (no quote marks on any of
these values) called "AS400HTML", with description "AS/400 HTML documents",
path name was "/home/httpd/" (where I have directories html, cgi-bin,
images, etc.)

Another way to create shares is to go under Integrated File System, navigate
your way to the directory to share (/home/httpd), then right click on that
directory, then Sharing, then New share. Some stuff is filled in already.

Subject: CA Express and the IFS


While running Client Access Windows 95/NT client v3r2m0, I was able to map
to the Integrated File System
(IFS) on my AS/400.  But, after moving to CA Express Client v4r4m0 (with
SF60796 applied), I can no
longer see, nor use, the IFS.  When I put CA v3r2m0 back, my ability to use
the IFS comes back (go
figure).  I need to have Express load and the ability to use the IFS (ex:
administrating Domino).  My
AS/400 is running v4r4.  Is there a PTF or some setting that needs changing
(like a port number)?  Your
help is appreciated.

Thank You,
