RE: How to copy files from IFS to a Windows server?

IFS style syntax perhaps.

Windows and IBMi user must typically match.

NFS and Windows Services for Unix might be a better option.

See archives for previous discussions on this.

You'll need to use the QNTC file system. There are some restrictions, so check the docs.

Subject: How to copy files from IFS to a Windows server?

We have a Windows file server to which I need to copy files from the IFS, performed by a CL program on our v7r1 box. In Windows Explorer, I can reach this server via \\Jupiter\, and can map a drive to it. However, I can't figure out how to access from the i.

I tried:
CPY OBJ('/danflr/sales.zip') TODIR('\\Jupiter\sales2017') but this gives CPFA0A9 (Object not found. Object is
/Jupiter/sales2017/sales.zip.) I sense that TODIR restricts the target to be in the IFS.

Am I using the wrong command? Is there some type of setup that tells the i where to find the Jupiter server?
