We are a small community college in N.W. Oregon.  We are in the process of
installing SRN and Bi-Tech systems for our Student Information and Accounting
information.  The test accounts, including IMAGE databases, reside on HP3000
937 RX.  The production accounts, including IMAGE databases reside on a HP3000
939 KS.  There is a 3rd version of the production account residing on the 937
which our report programmer uses to write the BRW reports we will use.
Currently, I use STORE tapes to copy things from the place they are to the
place I want them to be.

I would like to use FTP to copy databases and KSAM files from one to the other,
so which ever solution which will allow me to do this easily is what I would
like.
