I know that I can use 'ftp' and 'rcp' interactively. I want to do the transfer from the programs with a function call with remote & local filenames as arguments (The filename is a combination of hostname and path just as in rcp). It can be assum- ed that the username is same on remote and local machines, although eventually root privileges may be assumed on both local and remote machines. Please send email to rao@cerc.cs.wvu.wvnet.edu. Thanks alot, Rao.
