Direct network access for e.g. scp is blocked between the lat-sskiw01/02 workstations and the MCR bastion host (lat-dmz01). In fact, only outbound connections and traffic are allowed from these workstations. To push files to, or pull files from, the MCR bastion host lat-dmz01 when working at one if the sskiw machines, you must use the FASTCopy client program fcopy, as follows:

  • to transfer a file from lat-sskiw01/02 to lat-dmz01, use the following syntax from a command prompt on the sskiw machine:
    fcopy filename.ext lat-dmz01:/some/path/writeable/by/you -user=<you> -password=<your_password>
    
  • similarly, to transfer a file from lat-dmz01 to lat-sskiw01/02, use the following syntax from a command prompt on the sskiw machine:
    fcopy lat-dmz01:/some/path/readable/by/you/filename.ext . -user=<you> -password=<your_password>
    
  • if you don't have or can't remember your account or password on lat-dmz01, there is a "generic" username and password that you can use to copy arbitrary files to a particular location on the bastion host. If you need it, you can get the username/password from Bryson Lee, Jana Thayer, Ric Claus, Selim Tuvi, or Jim Panetta. The transfer-to syntax in this case is as follows:
    fcopy filename.ext lat-dmz01:/nfs/online/isoc/Incoming/tmp -user=<generic_user> -password=<generic_password>
