Has anyone every tried to run a filepro report with normal output to a unix
printer
Like from a command line via a HTML Page ? (Trying to get a .NET Appl to
run a report in fp)
i.e.:
A webpage executes a CGI script ..
The script then calls Filepro
Filepro (dclerk) then checks & verifies the information passed to
it
(Mainly to get the range and IP of requester - This in turn
sets the printer)
then runs dreport (via system) with output directed to a unix
printer
that is set via -pn .
The process I have in place works fine when run at a command prompt, but
then fails
if called by Apache.
Misc Info:
sco unix open server
All requests are made on-site, Intranet only.
Any IP not on the list is rejected.
