Hi,

Could someone please tell me what apart from security is
the difference and advantage of using ftp to copy files
rather than a straight forward copy.

Any help and links would be appreciated.

Thanks.
D.

Speed. FTP has less overhead and is thus faster.

Yor, my experience has been that ftp is extremely slow. Compared to
something like xcopy, which is a native 32 bit command line utility
which utilizes available memory for caching the copy process.
