Re: how to define 2 systems to each other via TCP/IP?

Rob's reply was right on. If you want to do SQL CONNECT stuff, you
need entries in the RDB directory. If you want to do 'traditional'
record level access, you use Distributed Data Management.

Michael,

Perhaps I did not provide enough detail for what I was hoping to accomplish.
I do have FTP and other access. But I was under the impression that I could
do something like CPYLIB from a local system to a remote as long as they
were defined to each other. Is that not correct?

There is another thing I would like to do and that is to access the database
on the remote system from an application program running locally. I
understand that application programs are *automatically* connected to the
local database but must issue an explicit CONNECT statement for a remote
database.
