In a SCO Unix shop, I am working on the following script to move any file to its same location on the target machine (called 'othersy' here):
If I find a file with a complete path name (leading slash, of course), I would not need to insert the "$pwd/" on the 'rcp' command. The echo 1 and echo 0 would be replaced with the appropriate 'rcp' command.
I had been experimenting with an if statement I found in a web search but what I found doesn't work on SCO.
I have a string "\/scratch\/databases\". I want
to have a new string "\/scratch\/databases" by cutting last '\' character using shell script. I can't do this
Please help me.
Thanks in advance

Hello I have two vars loaded with
$VAR1="ISOMETHING103"
$VAR2="COTHERTHING04"
I need to:
1) Strip the first char. Could be sed 's/^.//'

krcp
RCP(1) BSD General Commands Manual RCP(1)NAME
rcp -- copy file to and from remote machines
SYNOPSIS
rcp [-45FKpxz] [-P port] file1 file2
rcp [-45FKprxz] [-P port] file... directory
DESCRIPTION
rcp copies files between machines. Each file argument is either a remote file name of the form ``rname@rhost:path'' or a local file (contain-
ing no colon or with a slash before the first colon).
Supported options:
-4, -5, -K, -F, -x, -z
These options are passed on to rsh(1).
-P port
This will pass the option -p port to rsh(1).
-p Preserve file permissions.
-r Copy source directories recursively.
DIAGNOSTICS
rcp is implemented as a protocol on top of rsh(1), and thus requires a working rsh. If you intend to use Kerberos authentication, rsh needs
to be Kerberos aware, else you may see more or less strange errors, such as "login incorrect", or "lost connection".
HISTORY
The rcp utility first appeared in 4.2BSD. This version is derived from 4.3BSD-Reno.
