The point of all this has got lost - Terry was trying to find a good
solution (other than QNTC in my opinion), I & others suggested NFS
and the Windows Services for Unix - he felt his Microsoft folks would
flinch at anything non-MS and esp. the word Unix - so I said, call
the product WS4U and say its an MS product - well, he used the phrase
MS-proprietary in reference to THAT product, and it got past the
flinching - pretty cool, I think!!
So no one is saying anything is especially "proprietary"other than as
a way to get past local prejudices!
:) Let's all go out and eat some Snickers!!

Well actually it's probably more like IBM proprietary :-)

We had a meeting earlier this week and I made a few remarks using
the phrase "MS-proprietary" ;-)
So one of the PC Admins set up WS4U and after a bunch of twiddling
with security we were able to succesfully use a MOUNT, CPY and
UNMOUNT command to move some data.
Now I need to do a little research on the viability of doing
MOUNT's within QSTRUP and/or doing them dynamically for each
like this...
Thanks ALL for the help!

LOL - just call it WS4U and tell them it's from Microsoft.

It was my understanding that managing security around NFS services

Of the two remaining preferences, it's probably easier to use NFS

We have a meeting slated for sometime next week. I am leaning
towards using standard FTP but that means they will have to run
FTP services on each of their file servers.
This will probably be the lessor of two evils in their eyes ;-)
I really wish that IBM support had various versions of SMBCLIENT
available for download based on the level of the O/S. I find it
hard to believe that, with all of their available talent, IBM
can't have an FTP site available with pre-compiled binaries for stuff
server.shares.

Have them install Windows services for Unix and open up
appropriate NFS
(R2)?Then you simply mount the servers from IBMi.
