Re: Running dbaccess remotely

Not having any idea what platform(s) you're running on, I'll assume it's a Unix flavor and refer you to the "rexec" command. Not sure it'll totally address your issue, but it doesn't enable you to remotely execute commands...I don't recall if it'll push data back across to the remote machine, however. > I'm a newbie in Informix and is desperately looking for a solution to the > following problem I have: > > 1) I'm running Informix (7.x) on host A. > 2) I'm trying to run dbaccess (on host A) remotely from host B. > Qn: how can I do it? > > A bit of background to this problem: > Host B is actually a Web server containing some perl scripts.
