Help me with this simple file copy from Unix
Hello,

Imagine I am on a Unix system, connected to server via telnet. I do 'ls' and I see the file listed - OK. Filename=ems.log.

Then I need to copy such file from this server to my Windows network share \\windowsserver\myshare\smith.

How can I do that?

telnet does not support copying files.

What telnet cleint are you using - you may be able to screen scrape to a file then copy the file to your share using Widnows.

Does the unix box support ftp connections- windows comes with ftp?
