Can I use Datamovers without using LBone and LoRS tools?
Yes, you can use Datamovers without using the LBone or the LoRS tools. In fact there are a few projects that do not (e-Toile, 6net… ). However, they use their own repository system. Because the IBP architecture is layered, each layer can be accessed independently. Datamovers are integrated into the IBP server and you can use IBP_mcopy (details in the API) to access datamover services without using the LBone and LoRS tools.
