If you have VMS V4.0 or later, you can use SET HOST/DTE.
Let's say the line from the VMS system to the UNIX system is VMS line
TTA0. Then (if you want non-privileged users to be able to do this too),
SET PROT=(W:RWLP)/DEV TTA0:
SET TERM TTA0:/PERM/SPEED=####/whatever-else-you-need
and put this in your systartup for future boots.
Then to use the line, just say
SET HOST/DTE TTA0:
If you don't have VMS4, you can do this with VMS-Kermit, a widely available
file transfer program. You'll want to get Kermit for your UNIX system also,
to have a nice way to transfer files. For information on how to get Kermit
in Europe, contact <mcvax!seismo!cu20b.columbia.edu!sy.fdc>.
