HELPLIB.HLB  —  TCPIP Services, FTP  Copying Files
    To copy files from a remote host to your local host, use the GET
    command. To copy files from your local host to a remote host,
    use the PUT command. To use these commands, you must have an
    active FTP session with a remote host. You can enter any number
    of commands during the session. You can also use the COPY/FTP
    command to copy files across the network using TCP/IP. For
    more information on this command, type HELP COPY/FTP at the DCL
    prompt.

    FTP resolves the differences between UNIX file systems and
    OpenVMS file systems automatically. By default, the PUT command
    copies files to UNIX systems using lowercase file names without
    version numbers. If you use a wildcard to copy all versions of a
    file and do not specify an output file, the following occurs:

    o  The version numbers become the last element of the copied
       files.

    o  Semicolons are converted to periods.
