Re: [foxboro] XP running an executable program in an Unix Sun Box

Rsh is a standard part of Windows. It can be used with Solaris, but you
have to setup some things on the Solaris side that I don't quite
remember and are too hard to describe.

Does the XP box even come with an rsh client?  I think Exceed had one,
but =

it is an old Exceed on our 7.1.3 box and we found that tha rshd server
did =

not work.

In general, we found interoperability at a scripting/shell level between

our AW70 and the rest of our 51s to be poor to nonexistent out of the
box. =

 We had to use 3rd-party software (mostly open source Windows ports, =

thankfully) or roll several of our own tools to perform some of the
normal =

system admin tasks we've been doing for years with standard software on =

the Suns.  It is one of the reasons I have held off buying any more =

Windows I/A boxes.

[foxboro] XP running an executable program in an Unix Sun Box






Hi guys,
 =


We are in the process of adding some XP workstations to an existing
V6.5.2
Unix system.  We have a problem getting a button, which runs a dmcmd, to
work on the XP platform.  The button, which works fine on the Unix
FoxView
platform.

 =


run rsh -n A1AW01 /opt/foxind/etsa/pcalc/bin/demand 2 > =

/var/tmp/demand.log

 =


A1AW01 is a 51B workstation.  "demand" is an Sun Sparc executable file. =


 =


Is there some variation of the syntax that will enable this command to
be
launched by the a button on the XP platform?
