Hello, A customer of ours wants to be able to route printer output from our VM/XA system to their local BSD Unix workstation to be printed on that workstations printer. They ask us if that is possible. Both the VM/XA system and the workstation is connected to the same ethernet and both speak TCP/IP. On the VM/XA side it's the IBM TCP/IP FAL product. Have anyone done this before? Do you have any ideas how to do this? I have been thinking about setting up a disconnected machine in VM to which the listings could be spooled to, and that machine reads it in and starts an FTP session the workstation in question. But I don't know if this is a very good solution. Any suggestions would be welcome.
