Hi,

What do I have to do to copy a file system called /dbms from one aix box
to another. They both are on a network. They both have each others ip# in
the hosts file as
123.456.78.90 = oldsystem
123.456.78.91 = newsystem

Just not sure what method to use to copy over.

Thanks

actually I am wanting to use "rcp". I have the hostnames set up properly
and they can ping each other.
The local host is included in the remote host /etc/hosts.equiv file. I am
logged in as root on the local host box and issuing the command...

rcp -rp /directory/subdirectory newsystem:/directory/subdirectory

I recieve the error message saying

rshd: 0826-813 Permission is denied.

any ideas??

Thanks

If you have ssh installed, then use scp instead of rcp.
If not, then in file

/.rhosts

make sure you have the line

oldsystem root

man rcp:

The remote host allows access if one of the following conditions is satisfied:

o The local host is included in the remote host /etc/hosts.equiv file and the
remote user is not the root user.
o The local host and user name is included in a $HOME/.rhosts file on the
remote user account.
