Besides, setting up proxy accounts on the VMS level and setting the host file. What else do I need to setup for users to be able to copy between VMS servers? This is a stand-alone VMS server environment. The version of VMS we're running is at 7.3-2 on ES45.
Please help.
Thank you in advance.
Happy Holidays!!
Jorge

Re: Enable copying between VMS servers
What's a "host file"?

Re: Enable copying between VMS servers
Assuming a phase IV and DECnet available between two nodes:
$ copy node0"usera passwordb"::user_disk:[dir]file.dat node1"userb passwordb"::user_diskb:[dirb]fileb.dat
You can remove the node specification on the node you're executing the command from as well as device and directory. Configuring proxy will allow you to drop the user/password and avoid sending plain text passwords over the network.
Proxy accounts don't apply for ftp/sftp.

Re: Enable copying between VMS servers
As it has already been asked, I will not repeat the request for a complete description of how the systems are networked. The use of Proxies implies DECnet (Phase IV or Phase V), but the comment about "host file" implies TCP/IP (and proxies are DECnet related, not FTP related).
Personally, if I am setting things up with proxies over DECnet, I tend to define logical names to point to the other node, thus hiding many of the details from the end users. However, before I start posting examples, I would like to verify that it is suitable for your situation.

Re: Enable copying between VMS servers
It would be DECNET. I was able to copied from Node B to Node A without any problems. Howerver, I am having troble copying from Node A to Node B for some reason.
Any ideas??
Thanks,
Jorge

SolutionWith all due respect, my colleagues and I need to see examples of:
- the proxy configurations of both nodes
- the commands issued
- the error messages generated
Without the above, we are truly working not only in the dark, but blindfolded.

Too little evidence to call it proof, but
>>>

<<<
this SUGGESTS, that one of your node decnet databases or one of the proxy databases is not correct.
Try copying to the
node_NUMBER"username password"::
in both directions. If that works, the hardware and connectivity is functioning, and the decnet config is the next step.
Replace node_NUMBER by node_NAME and repeat.
If that also works, it is in the proxies. If not, it is in the DECnet config database.
To go any further, we really need to know if this is DECnet IV or DECnet V.

Proost.
Have one on me.

Re: Enable copying between VMS servers
$ Set Process/priv=Security
$ Show intrusion
If by chance there are intrusion entries, then the delete/intrusion command may be applicable here. Can you or have you tried to do a Set host command to/from either node?

Re: Enable copying between VMS servers
Copy is just straight forward:
$ COPY
where
For instance:
$ COPY LOGIN.COM NODE1::DKA0:[somedir]MyLogin.com
or
$ COPY LOGIN.COM 1234::DKA0:[somedir]MyLogin.com

Re: Enable copying between VMS servers
Please post the results from your commands and add the qualifier /LOG.
The commmand that fails will give an errormessage and the working command will tell us how the authentication is done.
