Creating a depot on cdrom

Hallo.
I have a depot on a server (HP-ux 11.00) and I would like to put this depot on a cdrom bymeans of my pc (using nero burning).
Is it possible and how?

Re: Creating a depot on cdrom

1) Create depot in the server first with swcopy command:

# man swcopy

2) Transfer the depot file to PC using ftp, NFS or any other command. Use binary transfer.

3) Create CD with your software.

I think its swcopy (to a directory) and
swpackage to prepare a depot file...

1) tar up the whole depot directory on the HP-UX server.

2) ftp to your PC in binary mode

3) untar the depot

4) create a cd with this whole untarred depot directory.

Hello!

Yes it's possible, if you want to copy as
he (just depot) copy to your PC.
The only problem that could be is how
you burn the CD because after you will want
to mount the disk on the HP so burn it
in mode1 and not use joliet.

When you will mount use the option of "cdcase"
