/dev/_tcp: Invalid argument

[Nancy Palmquist]

Joining the conversation late but

In my experience, when putting filepro on a mounted device for any SCO Unix 
(haven't tested others)
I need to set as follows:


PFDATA=/u
PFDIR=/appl
PFPROG=/u/appl

PFDSK=/u

The fppath would read:

/u
/appl
/u/appl

I think I have that right.  Lines are PFDATA, PFDIR, PFPROG respectivly.

If you use any getenv() logic with PFDIR, you will need to also include PFDATA 
in the logic to get the full path correct.  Also in scripts, this would make a 
difference.

To make programming translate well to a WINDOWS version, I always use 
getenv("PFDATA"){getenv("PFDIR") to get the location of /filepro.  On windows, 
it is always assigned

PFDATA=D:
PFDIR=
PFPROG=D:

PFDSK=D

When \fp and \filepro are at the root of D. (I usually put a folder on D to use 
for installing, such as \appl (like unix)  Makes stuff easier to share, and move.
