I need to load some files from a tape produced by Vax/VMS onto an
Ultrix system. I initially brought the files up onto a VMS system and
then used ftp to transfer it over to the Ultrix system. All the files
except for one were fine, the corrupted file seemed to be a binary
file. I am quite sure that the correct modes were set during the ftp
transfer. I suspect that a conversion from a VMS binary format to an
Ultrix binary format file is needed. Could anyone help me out or give
me pointers towards a solution ?

thanks,
