While personally I like scp expecially when you get the keys setup and can scp files without the need for a passwd between systems

Could you not use q pointers from one system to the other? We use this to copy data from a database items from one aix system to another

The problem with scp is that it is not pick aware and copying a file while being updated is one way to get a corrupted database on the other server

Hi everyone. I would like to use uucp to copy files from our AIX production server to our AIX development/test server. I already use rcp to copy programs back and forth, but that does not work for files. Ftping the files to the desktop then to the development server is very tedious. I have created the uucppublic directories and the .hosts directory has the server names. When I enter the uucp command on the production server I get an error that states the dev server name is not valid. I think I am missing another setup for uucp but I do not know what it is.

Thanks,
