>Oracle is on a Unix server. From within PL/SQL I can access files using UTL_FILE and by executing OS commands using Java. I would like to copy files to a different server, that could be NT or some other that will accept FTP. Can I do this from within PL/SQL?

Typically, when I want to copy files from one server to another (in my case from Oracle on NetWare to Oracle on Linux, I use the export/import feature. I don't know if it is possible to use FTP as the above mentioned command has done everything I needed it to do.
