Abstract: SEND allows a nonpriviledged user on one node to send a file (binary or text) to a nonpriviledged user on a remote node. Neither user needs an account on the remote VAX nor do they need access to VAX mail.
SEND works by setting up a transparent task-to-task link to an OBJECT (SENDSRV) on the remote node. After establishing this link, the programs exchange information about usernames, nodenames and file attributes. After exchanging the file attributes, the file is copied in 512 byte blocks to the remote node. Upon the successful completion of the transfer, the sender receives a log message and the receiver is sent a broadcast. If the receiver is not logged in, a count file is created in the receiver's root directory. When the user logs in, they are notified.
