Garry, I am not 100% on this but I think SAMBA does not really have anything to do with it. I have a VOC record that is named USR.LC.BIN
Its data looks like so: F1 DIR F2 /usr/lc/bin/ F3 D_HOLD_ # I cheated here. Normally when you make a file/dir you make it in side of the db (and it makes a real and working DICT.) In any case I did not care about the dictionary items because I wanted to just use AE and ESEARCH to find scripts that I make for over all UNIX management of the system fast, and edit as needed. + the dir already existed. Thus I made the VOC by hand. I use esearch all the time with this; I can find all of my systems vars in a flash etc. In any case I have also used this to copy files (at the system level) and the system did not care one bit what kind of data was in it (hashed or text). It copied them as records just the same. If your SAMBA dir is readable from a file system point of view by the database you can treat it just like hold, ph, or savelists. I would love to use Somba, but have yet to get it going on my box. Thus I could be talking out my ear. I hope not. I hope I have helped. -----Keith Johnson Lewis-Clark State College Lewiston, ID -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 17, 2005 2:45 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [U2] [UV] AIX COPY TO SAMBA DIRECTORY Is there a way to create a text file from a Universe database to a SAMBA directory? I have tried the COPYI FROM PRODUCT TO CONV.DATA/CUST.TXT but this does not work since the CUST.TXT does not exist. I want to copy selected Universe files to text file so that these can be burned to CD-ROM for an offsite storage. Management is clamoring for redundant backups and media in wake of Katrina and Rita storms. Any suggestions? Garry Smith Dir.
