RE: opendir()

Not so crazy.. But how to write records to a iSeries Database from
within that shell script?  Then make it wake up an process the directory
until empty every few minutes.  We receive images from our customers,
thousands a day, and move them from our FTP and WEB servers, currently
to a windows 2003 server.  Our problem has been finding images when we
have too many files in one directory.  This is why we are building a
database as the images come in, move them to our NAS which we have
mounted an empty IFS directory over.  Then we can search the database to
find the image and know exactly where it is.

Here's a crazy idea - write a shell script and run it in PASE!
