.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
With
|
|
.B ncopy
|
|
you can copy files to different locations on a single NetWare file
|
|
server without generating excess network traffic. The program uses
|
|
a NetWare function to do the copy rather than transferring the file
|
|
across the network for both the read and write.
|
|
|
|
If the last argument is a directory,
|
|
.B ncopy
|
|
will copy the source file(s) into the directory. If only two files
|
|
are given and the last argument is not a directory, it will copy the
|
|
source file to the destination file.
|
|
|
|
If the source and destination files are not on the same NetWare server
|
|
(or are not on NetWare servers at all),
|
|
.B ncopy
|
|
will do a normal file copy.
|

.RE
|
|
|
|
.B -n
|
|
.RS 3
|
|
Nice NetWare copy. Will sleep for a second between copying blocks on
|
|
the NetWare server. Gives other people a chance to do some work on
|
|
the NetWare server when you are copying large files. This has no
|
|
effect if you are not copying on a NetWare server.
|

|
|
Default is 10. (1 Megabyte)
