Folks, One feature of FTP that was useful in my environment was the ability to add/remove LFs from ASCII files when moving them between PC and UNIX systems. ?I use scp in place of ftp wherever possible but have to manually "tr -d" them on the other side. Any way to implement this feature as an option? ?If the file has CR/LFs then strip or if the file has CRs add. ? ? e.g. ? scp -a localfile.txt me at remotehost:remotefile.txt Many thanks, -------------------------------------------------------- Doug Manton, AT&T EMEA Firewall and Security Solutions ? ? ? ? ? ? ?douglas.manton at uk.ibm.com -------------------------------------------------------- "This company has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down.
