Hi Manager's

i got a DOS-diskette and be able to see the contents:

/usr/bin/mtools/mdir a:/
Warning: "//.mcwd" is out of date, contents ignored
 Volume in drive A is FT
 Directory for A:/

199904~1 ABX 1380 3-31-99 3:50p
199904~2 ABX 81184 3-31-99 3:50p
199904~3 ABX 586696 3-31-99 12:23p
ABX_19~1 ABX 4687 3-31-99 3:07p
ABX_19~2 ABX 57556 3-31-99 12:42p
TABLE_~1 332 3-31-99 5:05p
       6 File(s) 724480 bytes free

but i'm not able to copy these files (the filenames are much longer as 8 cha-
racters) to this DEC-Unix machine (V4.0B) with mcopy.

Usage: /usr/bin/mtools/mcopy [-tnvm] sourcefile targetfile

/usr/bin/mtools/mcopy a:/199*.ABX *.lis
/usr/bin/mtools/mcopy: No match.

Any idea what i made wrong?

                        Thanks, H. Baumgartner
