Strangely, the command rkl> DOES work if you use rcp host:filename filename (i.e. omit the username). That's because host.username IS an unknown host. With HP-UX 7.0 we got a new syntax which is rcp username@host:filename filename Actually there can be a username and/or hostname specified on either filename, so you can perform a copy between two machines by giving the command on a third machine. rkl> Fix: rkl> Copy rcp from an HP-UX 6.5 backup - it works perfectly with or without the rkl> username in the command. So: DON'T DO THAT! There's nothing wrong (as far as I know) with the rcp shipped with HP-UX 7.0. Only the syntax has changed to the one used by most BSD machines. rkl> On a different tack: rkl> Having upgraded to HP-UX 7.0, we are desperately in need of a version of rkl> monitor for 7.0. Can someone please tell me (or post to this group) rkl> where I can get monitor for 7.0 on the Series 300 (e.g. anonymous ftp) ? I got mine from Customer Service. It is in a fileset called USRCNTRB or something like that, and has a note saying "For internal use". I don't know if it's ok to put the files under anonymous ftp. Does anyone from HP know? If it is ok (that is: legal and so on), then I could place them on lut.fi as I have many other packages found to be running on HP-UX 7.0 available for anonymous ftp also. -- Kim ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, "That's what ( Kimmo !
