ok that makes sense.

So what exactly would be the exit point if I'm wanting to detect when a
file lands in an IFS directory?

Lets say it was ftp'd in... (but could be dropped in a directory other than
ftp so don't want to limit ourselves to a ftp exit point)...

I want an exit point to fire my pgm to let me know.

is there an exit point for that?

I know there is scan_open and scan_close - but I do believe those files
need to have a scan attribute assigned to them for the exit point to fire
for those.

Then there is the new open/close exit points in 7.5 BUT, we are not on 7.5
yet.

Any options?

thanks

If the exit point is for NetServer methinks you need to create/remove
files using netserver - typically using a share.
Wrklnk et al are all native commands not executed using netserver.

It has been some time since I've worked with this exit point.

I currently have a simple pgm registered to the exit point and have
restarted netsrv, but when I do my wrklnk and create a file or directory I
cannot get the exit program to fire.
I've attached to the pwfs0100 format and based on supported functions,
deleting/creating a file in the IFS should fire my exit pgm... right?

I even used an old exit program (that does other things I don't want it to
do) that I tested to be sure my new pgm was ok, and I cannot get it to
reflect a last used date either on the pgm object when I take an IFS action
on a file.

When I change/add the exit pgm I am sure to restart the server (in a
series of steps I used in the past that would always work)...

What am I missing?
