A network CE database is the per-OW-installation database. You need to convert each network CE database that has ToolTalk types other than those shipped with the OpenWindows Version3TM product.
You must be logged in as root to run the ttce2xdr script for the network CE databases.
To convert a network-wide database, enter the following command on the command line:
ttce2xdr [ -xnh ] -d network [ OPENWINHOME-from [ OPENWINHOME-to ]] |
Table A-3 describes the options for the ttce2xdr script.

The types are read from the CE database
$OPENWINHOME/lib/cetables/cetables
and written to the new ToolTalk Types database
$OPENWINHOME/etc/tt/types.xdr
To move ToolTalk types other than the ones shipped with the OpenWindows Version 3 product from the network CE database to the network XDR database, enter the following command on the command line:
ttce2xdr -d network old_OPENWINHOME new_OPENWINHOME |
where old_OPENWINHOME is the OpenWindow installation that holds the old network CE database and new_OPENWINHOME is the OpenWindow installation in which to update the ToolTalk XDR database.
