Before you port the scheduler file to a UNIX server, you created the .lpd file in EC Gateway for NT which contains the schedule. The .lpd file is the schedule itself, containing one or more events.
To make more changes to the .lpd file before you export
it to a UNIX server, see “Modifying an existing schedule by using the Scheduler window”.
To port the .lpd file to a UNIX server:
Click the Comm Channel icon.
Select Tools | FTP.
The e-FTP window displays.
Select the site you want to connect to by scrolling through the communications channel text box.
Click Login. If you are connected to your Internet Service Provider (ISP), your connection begins automatically, assuming you have loaded your connection hardware and software. If you do not have access to your ISP, then you cannot use e-FTP to transfer files.
From the local system, select the .lpd file to be sent, or select a directory to sent all the files in that directory.
Select the directory on the remote system where the file (or directory of files) is to be placed.
To send the selected file, click Put, or to send the entire directory, click Mput.
At this point, you can either run the .lpd file with schedd or you can modify the .lpd file. To run the file, go to “Running the .lpd Scheduler file”. To modify the events in the .lpd file, go to “Modifying an existing schedule by using the Scheduler window”.
