The other day I was asked if there was a way copy some files from my server (HP-UX 11.0) to our W2k server. I am not sure if there is a way to do that so I thought I would ask if anyone here knows the answer.
1) FTP -- there is an FTP client on NT B) Samba aka CIFS/9000 -- probably your most transparent method. This lets a UNIX box emulate a Windows share in either direction III) NFS - there are NFS Clients and Server suites for NT (e.g. www.xlink.com) 4) Variation of 1: Use Perl's Net::FTP module to automate FTP transfers.
If you run into specific issues, go ahead and post them back.

1) you could install (and config) samba on the 11.0 server and mount either way: a filesystem of the W2k server on the HP-UX server or the other way around. 2) use ftp (don't forget the difference of the ascii modes between W2k and real OS's like HP-UX) 3) use ssh/scp/sftp. Putty has nice solutions for that on the W2k server, openssh works fine on HP-UX 4) install NFS client on W2k server to mount NFS exported filesystem of the HP-UX server. etc. etc.
Every problem has at least one solution. Only some solutions are harder to find.
Make sure ftp server is working on ur w2k server. then use ftp as usual. only user name will be Administrator or any user existing on w2k server. rest r same.
