RE: Communication between servers and Informix 5 and 7

I need to note that this is from one online instance to another. I.E. My Informix 5 is running on a 580 UNIX AIX system and my Informix 7 is running on a SMP UNIX AIX system. Most have retuned info going from se(UNIX) and se(PC) engines. I need to know concerning online instatance from one UNIX box to another.
