NAME

ttcp − copy files in a ToolTalk-safe way. 

SYNOPSIS

ttcp [ −pL ] filename1 filename2
ttcp -rR [ −pL ] directory1 directory2
ttcp [ −prRL ] filename ... directory
ttcp -v
ttcp -h

DESCRIPTION

ttcp invokes cp(1) to copy files and directories, and informs ToolTalk about its actions so that the TT objects associated with the named files and directories can be duplicated at the same time. 

OPTIONS

−p Preserve.  Duplicate not only the contents of the original file or directory, but also the modification time and permission modes.  (The modification times of TT objects are preserved only if you are superuser.) 

−r

−R Recursive.  If any of the source files are directories, copy the directory along with its files (including any subdirectories and their files); the destination must be a directory. 

-L Copy the TT objects of the files, but do not invoke cp(1) to copy the actual files. 

-v Print the version of ttcp. 

-h Print usage information for ttcp. 

FILES

/mountpoint/TT_DB This directory is used as a database for the ToolTalk objects of files in the filesystem mounted at /mountpoint.

SEE ALSO

cp(1), ttmv(1), tttar(1), ttsession(1)

BUGS

The -i (interactive) option of cp(1) is not supported. 

The -p option does not preserve the modification times of TT objects unless you are superuser.
