| 27 | .SH DESCRIPTION | |
| 28 | .I Netcp | |
| 29 | copies files between machines and is similar to | |
| 30 | .IR cp (\*o). | |
| 31 | At least one of | |
| 32 | .I fromfile | |
| 33 | and | |
| 34 | .I tofile | |
| 35 | must be remote. | |
| 36 | The | |
| 37 | .B \-l, | |
| 38 | .B \-p, | |
| 39 | .B \-f, | |
| 40 | .B \-q, | |
| 41 | and | |
| 42 | .B \-n | |
| 43 | behave exactly as in | |
| 44 | .IR net (\*s). | |
| 45 | .PP | |
| 46 | .I Fromfile | |
| 47 | and | |
| 48 | .I tofile | |
| 49 | follow these conventions: | |
| 50 | .TP 4 | |
| 51 | 1. | |
| 52 | A simple filename is assumed to be local and from the current directory. | |
| 53 | .TP 4 | |
| 54 | 2. | |
| 55 | A filename preceded by a machine designator (see below) | |
| 56 | is a reference to a file on the specified remote machine. | |
| 57 | If a full pathname is not given, it is assumed to be from the login directory. | |
| 58 | .PP | |
| 59 | Examples: | |
| 60 | .IP " grades.p" 20 | |
| 61 | file in the current directory on local machine | |
| 62 | .IP " C:junk" 20 | |
| 63 | file in your login directory on C | |
| 64 | .IP " /usr/lib/pq" 20 | |
| 65 | file on local machine | |
| 66 | .IP " C:comp/c2.c" 20 | |
| 67 | file in a subdirectory on C machine | |
| 68 | .PP | |
| 69 | When files are being ``fetched'', that is, the | |
| 70 | .I fromfile | |
| 71 | is remote and the | |
| 72 | .I tofile | |
| 73 | is local, the | |
| 74 | .I tofile | |
| 75 | is created zero-length mode 600. | |
| 76 | For security reasons, when the ``fetched'' file's contents | |
| 77 | arrive at the local machine, the file must still be zero-length | |
| 78 | and mode 0600. | |
| 79 | No confirmation is sent to the user that the file has been ``fetched''; | |
| 80 | a non-zero file length indicates completion. | |
| 81 | .PP | |
| 82 | .I Netcp | |
| 83 | executes the | |
| 84 | .IR net (\*s) | |
| 85 | command. | |
| 86 | .SH "SEE ALSO" | |
| 87 | net(\*s), netrm(\*s), netq(\*s), netlog(\*s), | |
| 88 | netlpr(\*s), netmail(\*s), netlogin(\*s), cp(\*o), mail(\*o) | |

| 91 | .SH BUGS | |
| 92 | The second filename may not be defaulted to a directory name as in | |
| 93 | .IR cp (\*o), | |
| 94 | it must be given explicitly. | |
| 95 | .br | |
| 96 | The file mode may or may not be set correctly. |
