File Directories
Before you do the sending, you might want to change the
directory of the file. It involves two directories: the
local directory on the machine running WAC Clients (WACTERM
or WACSSH), and the remote directory on the server.
Note: To change the directory of the
file, you need to press "Ctrl+}" to temporily
leave your terminal session and shift to the command screen
of WAC Clients.
When you do file transferring, the file is looked up
in the sending machine's current directory and will be
placed in the receiving machine's current directory.
- To change the local directory, use "LCD"
command, for examples:
WACSSH> lcd mydir
If you want to see the current local directory, just
type "LCD":
WACSSH> lcd
- To change the remote directory, use "CD"
command, for example:
WACSSH> cd mydir
If you want to see the current remote directory,
just type "CD":
WACSSH> cd
Note: For details about the commands,
please see "WAC Clients Commands".
If you don't specify the file directories, WAC Clients will
set the local current directory as the current directory when
you run the WAC Client applications, and WAC Server will set
the remote current directory as the user's initial directory
(see "The InitDir Panel" in "User
Preference" section for details), or set the installation
directory of WAC Server in case of no user initial directory
available.
When you run "WAC Explorer" (WACEXPLORER.EXE),
it automatically set the remote current directory to the
directory currently listed in "WAC Explorer",
this will give you much convenience to send files to server
when you run "WAC Explorer" on the server, just
explore to the directory you want to place the received
file, and issue "SEND" in the command
screen.
However, if you don't want the file to be placed in WAC
Explorer's current directory, you can always use "CD"
command to override the remote current directory before
you send.
