Before you can write that code, you have to decide how you plan to do it.

Do you plan to map a drive on the Windows box to the Unix box? Or is there an FTP server or an HTTP server on the machine which you aren't going to run your code on? Or what?

And I will move this post to a more suitable forum.

Since it's mapped, you can just use command line commands to move the files. Here's some of mine for linux.

If you use Chris's technique make sure you read "Why Runtime exec() won't" article (Google)

Personally, I'd just use Apache Commons copy file util method... execing things seems a bit wasteful to me.
