Asynch dial-out via TCP/IP (UCX)? (PPP)

» close window

The Question is:

 
I would like to automate an FTP transfer of a file from an Alpha with a
modem connected to a terminal server to a Windows NT system running FTP
server. How do I configure UCX to do this (dial the remote system when I
specify the remote systems IP address)
. Can this be done? Where can I find info on how to do this?
 
Thanks

The Answer is :

 
  Start with a recent version of UCX (V4.2 plus current ECO, or later) and
  OpenVMS V7.1 (or later), and look at the files in:
 
    SYS$COMMON:[SYSHLP.EXAMPLES.PPPD.DOC]
 
  The PPP support available with this combination can be used to support
  dial-out on serial lines.  (Documentation on PPP is in the above area,
  various PPP-related files and examples are in the same directory tree.)
