Just to confuse you, you might also want to investigate PICO...it's
standard issue on RaQ3 and RaQ4...not sure if it's on the Qube.  The real
Linux junkies will hate me...but Pico is easy for appliance operators like
myself.

If you use securefx(which is NOT free) you can log on as root...and
transfer as you like. There are MANY security reason not to do this,
though.

If you believe in the "Misery Loves Company" therory...you have lots of
company with folks who have a RaQ manual.

Gaining in-depth information from a RaQ manual is like using the
fine print on prescription bottles to study for your Pharmacy Board Exam.
