Customers receive the file, unzip it, and FTP it in binary into a savefile on their system and do a rstobj from there. However, we have a couple customers who don't have TCP/IP. We're trying to avoid cutting CDs to allow them to simply rstobj from the CD (we have the software to create such CDs, though). So, we need to provide a way for customers without TCP/IP to get these savefiles to the system. The idea occurred to me that they could burn the savefile to a CD on a PC, then use FTP to localhost to pull it from the CD via the IFS /QOPT directory into a savefile, but this would require the FTP server to be running. If the customer doesn't have TCP/IP configured or even a NIC, can the FTP server be started to allow this? Any other ideas? NOTICE: This E-mail may contain confidential information.
