Hi

Is it possible to write an scheduled agent to write file on my network. This agent must run on my server. I try using UNC path like this : \pdc-riki.… This don’t work. Do you have a solution ?

Thanks

Subject: Yes

Map a drive on the server to where you wish to place the file. Then, using file operations (look it up in help) put data into it.

Or, use ExtractFile in LotusScript to push a file to a specific path. (check help again)

Call notesEmbeddedObject.ExtractFile( path$ )

Parameters

path$

String. The path and file name where you want to store the extracted file on disk.

Hope this gets you started,

Subject: SYSTEM account has no network access

Keep in mind that when Domino is running as a service on Windows, it us probably running as the SYSTEM account.

While this account has full access to the local machine, it has no access at all to the external network.

You may want to consider running the Domino server under a network account, which is slightly different. Check the admin help file.

cheers,

Bram
