Copy from Remote UNIX to Local Windows via Universal Command Manager for Windows
The following figure illustrates the copying of a file from a remote UNIX system to a local Windows system. Although the command is shown on two lines, it should be entered on one line at the command prompt. If it is coded in a script, the Windows continuation character of ¬ must be used.
ucmd -cmd " /opt/universal/bin/ucopy unixinputfile" -host unixhost -encryptedfile unixid.file > c:\temp\ntoutputfile
The standard out of the ucopy command on the remote host is redirected back to the local host and written to c:\temp\ntoutput.file
. The command ucopy is installed as part of Universal Command Server on the remote system.
The file is copied as a text file, since the default transfer mode for standard files is text.
