QNX to QNX over TCP/IP

I have to set up a link between multiple QNX networks and a central QNX
system over TCP/IP through X.25 Routers.

Help!

Do I have to do all messaging & transfers in TCP/IP, or is there a way to
configure the system so that all the QNX Nodes can see each other as nodes,
such that “cp //1/xxx file://2/xxx” would still work over the TCP/IP link,
and maybe even be able to use QNX send/receive between globally registered
processes.

All sugestions greatly appreciated.

Quick answer: TCP/IP only

Long answer: Someone was talking about encapsulating FLEET within IP. I dunno
where that’s at but I haven’t heard that it’s done (or even ongoing, for that
matter).

It’s rumoured not to work well, because the WAN timeouts confuse FLEET,
but look for “infleet” at ftp.qnx.com, or however that new-fangled web
QDN thing puts stuff.

It is called infleet and available on QNX ftp site. If you link is fast
enough
it should work ok. On slow link FLEET doesn’t perform very well (wasn’t
design for that)

Yep, ftp://ftp.qnx.com is still OK, as the old archives will continue to be
available for existing customers.
or for anonymous access to updates:
ftp://updates.qnx.com (without entering in a userid/password or register
products for access to updates)
or
just follow http://support.qnx.com/download/updates/index.html
