Moving Files from Windows to HPUX

Am trying to move a bulk of file using the mv command from windows to hp-ux via cifs but there are files that are moved to my HP-UX system but was still there in my windows system. I suspect that my Windows system locks it that is why i cannot moved it. Is there a command in Unix to forcefully unlock it to completely before i move the files to my HP-UX system?

Re: Moving Files from Windows to HPUX

Hello Fernando,

Problem I thinks is the application owner of these files run on the other OS.

I think you will have to create some kind of backup ( tar, cpio, gzip on UX , winzip on windows ) move the archive to the other OS and unpack it and remove the files from the original location.

Hope this helps,
