We have used Samba other ways, but I have never actually tried to copy from Windows to Unix.
What would the syntax be to copy?

Can the unix machine see a windows share? You MAY be able to put a network path in field 2 of a voc entry, but by default, if UD recognises a network path it'll probably refuse to access it. And is copying PDFs (binary files) using the UD command line a good idea? > > Other thoughts? Put samba on the HPUX box, share your HPUX directory, and copy the pdfs from Windows to nix. Or if you need to do it from the nix end, share your Windows directory and use smbmount (probably part of samba, I'm not quite sure what's happened to it) to make the windows share look like a nix directory where you can use nix commands to copy. > > Running HPUX, UniData 7.2.1. > > John > Cheers, Wol _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users _______________________________________________ U2-Users mailing list U2-Users@listserver.u2ug.org http://listserver.u2ug.org/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
