Copying Files

The command to copy files in NetWare is NCOPY. The usage of this command is similar to the COPY command of DOS. The advantage of using NCOPYis that you can copy files across volumes, which cannot be done through the COPVcommand as we have seen earlier. The syntax is:

NCOPY source-path destination-path

To copy all files from directory LIB to current directory, you can use the command

NCOPY V0L2:LIB\*.*

NCOPY can also be used to copy files from one directory in a particular volume to another directory in a different volume.

NCOPY VOL1:PROJ\*.* V0L2:LIB

will copy all the files from the directory PROJ in the volume VOL1 to the directory LIB in the volume VOL2.
