Re: File transfer

[shubhendu <97co266@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

hi Karthika 
   
first i want to ask purpose of file transfer if u r not particuler 
for using rpc directly ( as a command line option ) 
try NFS to achive the same effect ie. use cp command to copy file from
one system to another 

follow the steps given below 

1 . write the fs u want to access ( on  server ) in /etc/exports on server
  like 
     /home/shubh

2. run rpc.mountd and rpc.nfsd

3. run exportfs < clientmc(better give ip no) >

4. now simply mount the server dir on client m/c 
   on any free mount point 
   mount SERVER:/home/shubh /mnt/floppy  ( here replace SERVER with server
                                           name or ip no )

5 . now do cd /mnt/floppy and use it as local file system

the same ( what u r doing ) after trying what i have said hope this
