Transferring a file from a remote site

To copy a file from a remote site, your site must have read permissions on the file. Normally your site would have read permissions only on the public UUCP directory and its subdirectories.

For example, say you want to copy the program pages from programs, a subdirectory of the remote site's public UUCP directory, to your public UUCP directory.

To retrieve the file, you would enter this command:

uucp south!~/programs/pages '~/pages'

where south is the remote site.

For more information about the uucp command, see z/OS UNIX System Services Command Reference.
