Copying files through internet

[Alberto Brivio]

Dear ALL,

just a question about simple file copy.

In a LAN environment I can execute a file copy in this way

copy file \\node-name\folder

but I can specify IP address and I can get the same result

copy file \\node-IPAddress\folder


Problem is, I'm trying to execute the same command not in a LAN environment
but in internet so machines will be in two different locations:

I specify this command

copy file \\node-IPAddress\folder but it returns an error code like no file
has been copied to the specified location

Anyone of you could give me an help ?



Regards
