/sys$common/syshlp/HELPLIB.HLB  —  COPY  /FTP  Qualifiers

1    /ANONYMOUS

    Causes an anonymous access to the remote node or nodes.
    /ANONYMOUS is the default remote access. The password
    passed to the remote node should be in the form of
    "user@fullyqualifiednodename".

2    /ASCII

    Used to identify an ASCII file (text file). /ASCII is the
    default.

3    /BINARY

    Required to identify binary files.

4    /FDL

    This qualifier is optional. Causes interaction with an FDL (file
    definition language) file. If the file is being copied to the
    local OpenVMS system, a remote FDL file is sought and interpreted
    for the operation. If the file is being copied outside the local
    OpenVMS system, an FDL file is generated and copied in addition
    to the requested file. If the /FDL qualifier is specified and the
    vendor application does not support it, a warning message may be
    issued.

5    /LOG

    Displays a message at SYS$OUTPUT when a file is transferred.

6    /NOSTRUVMS

    Used to explicitly disable the negotiation of STRU OpenVMS
    transfers. Otherwise, some servers will immediately abort when
    negotiating the feature.

7    /PASSIVE

       /PASSIVE=option

    Controls whether the FTP client or server initiates the data
    connection. If you do not specify this qualifier, the Internet
    Protocol appropriate value is used. The values are: OFF for IPv4,
    ON for IPv6.

    The following table describes the /PASSIVE options:

    Option      Description

    OFF         The FTP server initiates the data connection.
    ON          The FTP client initiates the data connection.
    (default)
                This is often used where a firewall between the FTP
                client and server prevents the server from making an
                outbound connection.

                ON is the default value only if /PASSIVE is
                specified.

    The underlying TCP/IP Networking product must recognize this
    qualifier and must support FTP passive in order for this
    qualifier to have an effect.

    Note that the /PASSIVE qualifier is equivalent to the FTP PASV
    command.

8    /SSL

     /SSL=option

     Controls whether the FTP client uses secure SSL sockets for the
     connection.  The following table describes the /SSL options:

     Option      Description

     CCC         Clear Control Channel connection option is useful
                 when the copy must pass through a firewall. The
                 Control Channel data is not encrypted so the
                 firewall knows which port to open for the Data
                 Channel.

     DATA        All transmission data is encrypted.
     (default)

    The underlying TCP/IP Networking product must recognize this
    qualifier and must support SSL encryption in order for this
    qualifier to have an effect.

9    /VERBOSE

       /VERBOSE
       /NOVERBOSE

    Specifies whether all messages (including banner messages) are to
    be displayed on the terminal. By default, disables the display of
    the messages.
