A Fileshare Client communicates with a Fileshare Server using the Common Communications Interface (CCI).
CCI supports several different communications protocols. The protocol you use depends on the operating system the Fileshare Client and Fileshare Server(s) are running on and the type of network you are using.
The default protocol is TCP/IP (CCITCP).
If you require a communications protocol other than the default, you must specify it in the Fileshare Client configuration file.
To specify an alternative default CCI protocol, use the /cm option:
/cm cciipx
This entry makes the Novell IPX protocol (CCIIPX) the default.
To specify that a particular CCI protocol is used when communicating with a specific Fileshare Server, use the /cm and /s options together:
/cm cciipx /s server1
This configuration file entry tells the Fileshare Client to use the Novell IPX protocol (CCIIPX) for communicating with the Fileshare Server named server1.
/cm ccitcp /cm cciipx /s server1
These configuration file entries tell the Fileshare Client to use the TCP/IP protocol (CCITCP) as the default and the Novell IPX protocol (CCIIPX) for communicating with the server named server1.
To configure CCI for your chosen protocol, please refer to your online book, Configuring CCI, or click Help Topics on the Help menu, and on the Index tab, click CCI Configuration Utility.
