- WIN_TCP
-
-
- WIN/TCP is an implementation of TCP/IP for VAX/VMS systems. TCP/IP
- stands for "Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol". This
- suite of protocols is used for communication among a wide variety of
- computer types and operating systems. It is also the communications
- protocol specified for use on the MILNET, so some familiarity with
- TCP/IP commands is necessary for work on that network. Help on the
- different user commands is available by command name within this help
- file; the USER entry lists the available user commands with a short
- description of each. The three most used utilities are listed below;
- see their individual descriptions for more information:
-
- TELNET - used for interactively logging on to a remote computer
- FTP - used for transferring files to or from a remote computer
- MAIL - MILNET mail uses a format called SMTP; see MAIL
