COPY command, and between a VMS system and another computer using FTP or Kermit.
A full file specification for a file on a remote node takes the following form:
The program can be invoked by either supplying a destination address on the command line, for example,
Kermit offers a number of other features for users willing to delve into its depths. It is also possible to automate your file transfers using scripts in conjunction with the Kermit
Remote File Access
Remote file access may be made on either the file or record level, but only file level access is discussed here. To access a file, you use normal VMS commands, such as COPY or TYPE, but you specify the file name differently.
node::disk:[directory]filename.type;version
For example, if you are logged on the host IDTVAX and you want to make a copy of a file on KEPLER, you might type the following command:
$ COPY KEPLER::DISK$SHARE0:[VIRGINIA]SMITH.DAT;1 *.*
This will work for most types of remote file access that you might need to do--as long as you have appropriate permission to access the file. Otherwise, it is possible to pass a username and password to the remote host. This is done by enclosing the login information in quotes next to the node name. For example, if the file we tried to copy in the previous example was unsuccessful, you might need to add your account name and password for the remote system, so your command might look like the following:
$ COPY node"username password"::DISK$SHARE0:[SMTH]FILE.DAT;1 *.*
FTP
To transfer files between systems on the network (for example, retrieving files over the Internet), you would use the FTP command. Before starting the program, you should move to the directory on your local system into--or from--which you will move files. It is also possible to move around local directories from within FTP by using the command lcd.ftp ftp.stsci.edu, or by simply typing ftp and then typing the open command, for example, open ftp.stsci.edu. You will then be connected to the remote machine and asked for your username and password. Table 8.4 describes some of the most useful FTP commands. Figure 8.9 shows a sample FTP session.
Table 8.4: Basic FTP Commands
You will occasionally, usually from the Usenet news, be invited to obtain files via anonymous FTP. To get these files, you need to open a connection to the remote machine, and when prompted for a user name, type the word anonymous. You will then be prompted for a password. At the password prompt enter your e-mail address. You will then be logged in and able to transfer files. Figure 8.9 is a sample anonymous FTP session to the node stsci.edu.

Kermit
The Kermit file transfer protocol was developed at Columbia University to allow file transfers between heterogeneous systems. It is frequently implemented in communications software for microcomputers (including Macintoshs, Amigas, and PC clones) as one option for file transfers--it is the most practical option for users who want to transfer files between their Institute VMS accounts and their home computers. To use Kermit:
From within Kermit, you can get a list of available commands by pressing kermit.send file and then start the download procedure from your home PC.rec file and then start the upload procedure from your home PC.EXIT.
. For more details, see the C-Kermit User Guide, which is available from the Science Software Support Office at STScI. TAKE command. These features are beyond the scope of this document and are described in the C-Kermit User Guide. File transfers over the network can also be done using Kermit, however, FTP is the preferred method.
