Yes, if you have FTP on the two machines. My NOS systems person advises
me that FTP for NOS is a separately priced product and may not have been
ordered for your machine.

Is there any way to transfer files between a machine running UNIX and a machine
running NOS? I've been using the method of going through my PC.

Thanks,

As far as I know, there is a (a little obscure, but nevertheless) usable
kermit for NOS. I myself used it some time ago do this kind of transfer...

As against FTP, I think it is not a specially priced product.

I'll assume you mean Control Data NOS running on *s.
If your Unix machine has a 9-track tape drive, you can transfer files
with that. If you have control over writing the tape on the NOS side,
use some sort of blocking utility (every site does it differently) to
make things easy on yourself (or dd(1)) on the Unix side. If you can't
control how the tapes are written, it's still possible, but a lot more
work (we'll talk).
