Hello, Ibm trying to copy all the contents of "/root/var/namedb from a remote OpenBSD3.8 DNS server to my local PC. I am using WinSCP for file transfer. I have found that I am unable to download some of the directories:
/root/var/named/etc /root/var/named/log /root/var/named/slave I do not know OpenBSD or Unix but I can use Putty to login to the console as a member of the wheel group then I can type su b to execute commands as root. I was told that I should copy the etc, log, and slave directories to my local user directory, then I would be allowed to download them using WinSCP. I do not know the commands to copy a whole directory. Can anyone help? I want to make sure that when the copies end up in my home directory, they no longer have b whatever restrictions" are keeping me from downloading them from where the originals are at now. Thanks very much for any help
