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. |
