Re: FTP COMMAND

Can you do ftp from your PC to hp server and then 'get' the file?.

Re: FTP COMMAND

Yes, or you can install a ftp client onto your PC. Use the GUI ftp client to drag and drop the file you want.

Re: FTP COMMAND

yes. you can do as,

windows ----> hp-ux ( ftp )

get the file / put the file

You can use ws_ftp LE client for this to do effeciently. IT is available here at,
http://www.download.com/3000-2160-10018456.html

It is GUI based one.

HTH.

Re: FTP COMMAND

I am not against FTP, but try using Samba its much better and faster, Only thing is you need to set up a samba server on your HPUX box. You can get samba from www.samba.org. Then you can map the shared drives from HPUX onto your windows BOX, and also do drag and drop kinda stuff which is very conveient, smb protocol runs much faster than FTP.

Re: FTP COMMAND

BTW if its just 1 time 1 file transfer dont bother installing samba :) just go to the DOS prompt and do a ftp to your HPUX server and get the file.

Hi Adrian,

You can ftp directly to your HP server and get the file via DOS prompt or you can install an FTP server software in your PC so you can transfer the file from HP server to your PC.

Re: FTP COMMAND

If you're transferring a file (or multiples) frequently, you can call ftp from within a script on the UX box and push the file to the Win2K box automatically. You need to create a .netrc file in the home area of the user running the script on the UX box, and install an FTP server (WS_FTP maybe) on the Win2K box.

Re: FTP COMMAND

I like reflections' ftp. It's a nice GUI and it allows me to rlogin to my HP-UX system.

If you want to automate your ftp, you might look at using perl. It has some nice ftp client features.
