These types of files
can be transferred:
A file whose format
is foreign to the target computer. For example, a Windows file format
is foreign to a UNIX operating environment.
A file whose format
has been changed to transport format, which can be subsequently read
and changed to the native format of the target computer.
Transfer is the process
of conveying a foreign file or a transport file between operating
environments across a network. Various third-party products are available
for performing this operation. This example uses FTP (File Transfer
Protocol) to illustrate the transfer operation.
You perform a transfer
operation by doing one of the following actions:
From the source computer,
use the FTP put command to copy a file from
the source computer to the target computer.
From the target computer,
use the FTP get command to copy a file from
the source computer to the target computer.
Your ability to push
a file from the source to the target computer will depend on whether
your access permission enables you to write to the target computer.
