OpenVms Samba/CIFS

[vmshasbeen]

Hello,
I currently have Samaba installed on a alpha machine with OpenVMS 8.3.

When I connect from a windows client and do a file transfer ,I get the know well known problem of file corruption on text files (i.e. Windows expecting stream LF/CR delimited records.

I was just wondering if there was any recommended work around for this? I don't want to write a script and get everyone to covert files for files that are passed.

Does anyone know if HP are planning to solve it?

Look at where the files are coming from, and see if they can be "repaired" at source. Or the applications that read the files, can they be amended?

This is another dos2unix type scenario, though I can't remember exactly what the line ending is in VMS, been a while ;-)
