Local Floppy Manager (LFM) Client for UNIX
Hosts
The LFM client provides a Graphical User Interface (GUI) for copying files
between the local floppy drive attached to the NC via the parallel interface and
a UNIX host server. The GUI features a point and click operation. The LFM
client is available with NCBridge version 3.2 or higher.
The LFM client is compatible with both the current NC product and earlier NCs
and X terminals. The compatible platforms are XP117C, XP119C, XP119M,
XP200, XP350, XP400, NC200, NC400 and NC900 series products.
To start the LFM on an NC, ensure that the floppy drive is connected to the
parallel port of the NC and powered up. Then, for the NC900, type this
command at the command-line prompt:
xpsh -display <
ipaddr>:0 lfm.900
Example: xpsh -display 134.6.5.12:0 lfm.900
To start the LFM client on a NC200/400 unit, type the following:
xpsh -display <
ipaddr>:0 lfm.500
Example: xpsh -display 134.6.7.14:0 lfm.500
Once the client is properly executed, the console of the NC should indicate that
the files “lfm.xxx” and “fdDrv.xxx” have been loaded, where “xxx” is one of
the extensions listed below:
The client screen should appear, as shown in Figure 8.
