The COPY/RCP command copies one or more files (or directory trees) to
or from a remote host using the RCP utility.
The OpenVMS DCL commands for TCP/IP support the same remote file
specification format as the DCL commands for DECnet network
connections. Some implementations of the file transaction applications
support file transfers in which both the source file and the
destination file are remote file specifications.
The full format for a remote file specification is as follows:
node"username password account"::filename.ext
|
If a file resides on a system other than OpenVMS, enclose the name of
the file in quotation marks. For example, to access a file named
/usr/users/user/Orders on a Tru64 UNIX node named U32, you
would use the following format for the file specification:
U32"user password"::"/usr/users/user/Orders"
|
Note that UNIX® systems support case sensitive file specifications.
