Some senseless babbling from Peter Knapper to Mike Ruskai
on 11-22-99  19:54 about Copying files and EA's......

 PK> Hi Mike,
 
 MR> Question three has the same answer, though beyond the file system on the
 MR> remote machine, the LAN protocol needs to provide for such a need.
 MR> Between two OS/2 machines, EA's are preserved without incident.  Between
 MR> OS/2 and a Win95 machine, no EA preservation, even though that machine
 MR> booted to OS/2 would support EA's.

 PK> See my other message, in that case I would expect SysCopyObject() to
 PK> provide support for EA copying if BOTH source/destination systems are
 PK> OS/2 on HPFS? 

Anything at all which calls the DosCopy() API will work, between two OS/2
LAN machines.  You don't need to be clever with REXX at all.
