Default Importing 25MB SCO/d3 Print Hold File into Windows XP PC Text File - 09-22-2005 , 06:44 PM






What is the simplest and safest way to do this:

1) Accuterm
2) Attach Windows XP PC to UNIX Network and Import d3 Print File (is this
possible?)
3) Save d3 Hold File to CD, dds Tape, or Memory Stick and Load onto XP PC
(media must be compatible with both OS's)

I would appreciate any advise.

Rob

Use Accuterm 2k2 it can handle > 25 MB, Just FT the file.

ISO(9660) image (a standard for both), but no need with the download

What SCO version? This is importantat. One way is SAMBA but you must
install it on SCO and you need the right version.

Some SCO's versions use to had NFS and others no. If yours has NFS you
can also use it.

If you do not have SCO the best way may be FTP.

Hope this help

P.S. What do you have in the file? If you only want to export data to
windows there are better ways to do it. Take a look at CDP. A couple of
weeks ago there were a post about it.

There is another easy way to do this:

create a new printer:

startshp,n,n,0,0,snnnn,lp.unix,(cat > /directory/file|chmod 777
/directory/file)


Then print not on a hold file, print in printer n

Then you can access /directory/file using FTP,SAMBA,NFS


Hope this help

Rob,

Have you tried:
EXPORT PEQS x
/tmp/rob

x is the hold file entry number
/tmp/rob is a directory where you may want to write the file

shell out
then
cd /tmp
sz -b rob

(not sure if this set of commands is available on SCO)
