NAME
ropy - remote file copy for arpa internet
SYNOPSIS
/usr/inet/bin/ropy file1 file2
/usr/inet/bin/ropy [ -r ] file ... directory
DESCRIPTION
Ropy copies files between machines over an ARPA internet connection.
Each non-option argument is either a remote file name of the form
`rhost:path', or a local path name. In the first form ropy copies
file1 to file2. In the second form it copies one or more files into
the named directory with their original file-names.
Option -r causes ropy to copy the contents of any named directory re‐
cursively; the destination must be a directory.
If path is not a full path name, it is interpreted relative to your lo‐
gin directory on the remote machine.
Ropy requires rsh capability; see dcon(1).
FILES
/usr/inet/lib/*
$HOME/.rhosts
SEE ALSO
push(1), cp(1), dcon(1), netstat(8)
BUGS
Ropy works by remotely executing the command rcp (sic); hence your
.profile on the remote machine must arrange for the command rcp to in‐
voke /usr/inet/bin/rcp, not /usr/bin/rcp.
