How to move a ClearCase vob when UNC style sharing is not allowed?

I am going to move a ClearCase vob from Windows 2000 to Windows 2008 server within same domain. But, I cannot access vob storage directory from windows 2008 server using \\hostname.

But I cannot use \\ here as it doesn't work. It allows file transfer only over RDP. Please advise how I can move the move in this case.

So, I have two questions :

1) Document says:

You must run ccopy on the host to which the VOB is being moved.

C:\ClearCaseStorage\VOBs> net use E: \\vobsvr01\vobstg
C:\ClearCaseStorage\VOBs> ccopy libpub.vbs E:\libpub.vbs

Is this correct because if I go to destination I will not have the .vbs file, then how ccopy can be used on the destination as advised above?

2) I cannot use UNC style sharing (\\) I can only use file transfer over rdp.

Please clarify on how I can move the vob in this case.

As illustrated in IBM technote "ccopy fails copying a VOB between Windows clients", you can use shared drive to copy the vob between Windows server.

For that, you can use the shared drive utility on W2000

You can also check if using net use \\ip.of.remote.computer works too.
