Copy Encrypted File from Local UNIX to Remote Windows

Copy Encrypted File from Local UNIX to Remote Windows via Universal Command Manager for UNIX​

The following figure illustrates the copying of a file from a local UNIX system to a remote Windows server.

Although the command is shown on two lines, it should be entered on one line at the command prompt. If it is coded in a script, the UNIX continuation character of ** must be used.

ucmd -cmd 'ucopy -output c:\temp\ntoutput.file' -host nthost
-encryptedfile login.file < /tmp/unixinput.file

The stdin of the ucmd manager on the local host is redirected to the remote host and written to stdout file c:\temp\ntoutput.file. The command ucopy is installed as part of Universal Command Server on the remote system.

The file is copied as a text file, since the default transfer mode for standard files is text.
