  ssl, ssh, scp, sftp, encryption, security? 
 The Question is:
 
When will scp (secure copy) be part of OpenVMS, or what do I need to make it
 available on OpenVMS today?
 
I need to copy a lot of Data using FTP today, I need to encrypt these data...
 Please help!
 
 
 The Answer is :
 
  Encrypt the file using your choice of host tools, and then use COPY/FTP.
  Alternatively, OpenSSL is available, with SSH expected in TCP/IP Services
  V5.4 and later.  And commercial and open-source ports of scp and sftp
  are readily available for OpenVMS.
 
  Information on OpenVMS and OpenVMS security products is available at:
 
    http://www.openvms.compaq.com/openvms/security.html
 
  Also please consider use of your prefered web search engine, as most
  any search engine should easily locate ssh and ssl and scp and sftp
  information for OpenVMS.
