    To copy files from and to a DECnet node, use the standard GET and
    PUT commands

    You can copy files to and from DECnet nodes and get remote
    directory information, if your host and the DECnet node are
    connected through a host running DIGITAL TCP/IP Services for
    OpenVMS. Use the full file specification, including the node,
    device, directory, and file name.

1 - Examples

    1. The following example copies local file FAX.TXT to DECnet node
       CURTAIL, renaming the file to CURRENT.TXT:

       FTP> PUT FAX.TXT CURTAIL::DISK$3:[GEARY.KEEPS]CURRENT.TXT

    2. The following GET command copies remote OpenVMS file
       HOUSING.TXT from DECnet node HABTAT and renames it to
       HOUSE.TXT:

       FTP> GET HABTAT::DISK$2:[NATL.UTAH.SWEST]HOUSING.TXT HOUSE.TXT
