RCOPY is located in \TOOLKIT\SAMPLES\TCPIPTK\RCOPY). It makes use of the FTP API, FTPAPI.DLL, to transfer a directory and all of its subdirectories between a client and FTP server. RCOPY does not read the user ID or password from the NETRC file, so they must be specified when required.

The following explains how to build and run the RCOPY samples.

• To compile and link the sample, type:

  nmake -f vacpp.mak   (to build using the VisualAge C/C++ compiler)
  

• To run rcopy.exe:

  • Command syntax:

    RCOPY put|get ascii|binary [-l<local path>] -h<host>
          -u<userid> -p<password> [-r<rem path>] [-a<account>]
    

    where:

    put

    Transfers from local host to remote host (default)
    get
    Transfers from remote host to local host
    binary
    Binary transfer mode (default)
    ASCII
    ASCII transfer mode
    
    Example:

    rcopy put -ld:\tmp -holeg -uyozzo -pyozzops -rc:\newtmp
    

    where:

    d:\tmp

    Is a local path to transfer
    oleg
    Is a remote host (FTP server)
    yozzo
    Is a remote user ID
    yozzops
    Is a remote password
