Dave,



With our version of Orbit, the first file in the backup is code -993 (your file FULL0000).  The other ones are -995.  You might want to confirm what the file codes for your version of Orbit creates, as the first one in the series might be different (LISTF @,-3).



Also, when I need to move those files around, I just use DSCOPY and specify the file code on the command:



dscopy file_name;,system_name;fcode=-993

dscopy file_name;,system_name;fcode=-995



DSCOPY works considerably faster in our environment, although I do realize that not all shops may have that software purchased/installed.



Vince

Using Orbit BPL backup, 



Trying to find a solution to a problem.



When backing up to a disk drive e.g.



:listf@,2

ACCOUNT=  SYS         GROUP=  BACKUP  



FILENAME  CODE  ------------LOGICAL RECORD-----------  ----SPACE----

                  SIZE  TYP        EOF      LIMIT R/B  SECTORS #X MX



FULL0000  PRIV   8192W  FB        1719     131071   1   110592 57  *

FULL0001  PRIV   8192W  UB      131072     131072   1  8388608  *  *

FULL0002  PRIV   8192W  UB       50860      50860   1  3255040  *  *



how can I get these backup files transferred to another machine using ftp so I can unload them using BPL?



Tried using Vesoft to change the file code to 1, transfer the file using ftp to the other HP3000 machine, and the change the code back to code -951 (?? somebody else did it) but can not read it.



Anybody have any clue's?



Thanks
