About Fileshare Communications

A Fileshare Server communicates with a Fileshare Client using the Common Communications Interface (CCI). A Fileshare Server can use several communication protocols concurrently, enabling it to communicate with a number of Fileshare Clients that do not all use the same protocol.

When you invoke a Fileshare Server, you need to specify the communications protocols it supports, using the /cm option in the Fileshare configuration file. Valid values for /cm are:

Windows platform:

• TCP IP

  Setting: /ccitcp

• CCISMEM

  Setting: /ccism

UNIX platform:

• TCP IP

  Setting: -ccitcp

• UNIX named pipes (FIFO pipes)
