Copy from Remote Windows to Local UNIX

Copy from Remote Windows to Local UNIX via Universal Command Manager for UNIX

The following figure illustrates the copying of a file from a remote Windows system to a local UNIX system.

Although the command is shown on two lines, it should be entered as one line at the command prompt.


The stdout of the ucopy command on the remote host is redirected back to the local host and written to the stdout of ucmd, which is then redirected to the local file localfile.

The command ucopy is installed as part of UCMD Server on the remote system.

The file is copied as a text file since the default transfer mode is text.
