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 OpenWindowsTM Version 3 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.
