19.3 Using it
You are sitting in front of your computer at home, working with a
report or something similar and find that you need some files
from the office machine.
Assuming that these files contain information that is very
sensitive or confidential, and even though you have the option to
protect your file requests with a password, you may still not
want to have the files semi-accessible. This is where you can use
FDSERVER.
The directories and file names used in this example were thought
up and does not necessarily match the setup on your machine.
Create a message addressed to FDSERVER on the node you want to
call and send it.

%nologerr
cd \TEMP
copy C:\LOTUS\THA*.SPS
arj a THA THA*.SPS
erase *.SPS
copy THA.ARJ C:\REQUEST\FORNOW
erase THA.ARJ
The server function will read the message and execute each line.
The next step would be to create a new server request containing
the following:

Re: password
----------------------------------------------------
%nologerr
erase C:\REQUEST\FORNOW\THA.ARJ
And send it along with a File Request for THA.ARJ. FD will
process the File Request first, and when the mail session has
been completed, the newly created server request will be
processed by FDSERVER.
