using C/TOOLS on the Unix platform?

Member Posts: 91
Hi all
I have a question on using the C/TOOLS(Navision 3.56) from the Unix platform.
The current configurations is:
One Unix server with the Navision 3.56 database
One Unix server with the Unix application which need to import/export data between itself(DB2 database) and Navision
The protocol on the server are tcp/ip
As I have been told, it is not possible to use C/TOOLS in a pure Unix environment. So the problem is how to communicate with the Navision database. Do you have any experience with this sort of development, please comment on this <img border="0" title="" alt="" src="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif" />
A solution could be to have a Navision Windows client connected to the Navision database on the Unix machine, and then make a client server solution using C/TOOLS. It would look like this in the most simple form:
A Unix application communicating via tcp/ip with an application accessing Navision(C/TOOLS).
Is this at all possible?
Thanks in advance

It's simply not true, that it is not possible to import/export data in a UNIX/UNIX environment. I have just helped a customer doing the same thing in an AIX/AIX environment. I presume that you want to connect to the Navision server from an AIX platform (DB2) so what you need is the C-TOOLKIT for AIX. It exists, and at least in Denmark it is possible to buy and the price here is DKK 10.000,-.
Please feel free to contact me, if you have any further questions.
Best regards Bobo.
