To move files from SLAC to mercury2, use bbftp.
1. logon to mercury2
2. Go to the directory you want to put your files
3. And issue bbftp command. For example
  > /usr/local/bin/bbftp -p 10 -s -t -V -E /afs/slac.stanford.edu/g/babar/bin/bbftpd -s -u khamano -e " cd /nfs/farm/babar/trackeff2/khamano/R16b ; mget *.root " noric02.slac.stanford.edu

   -u xxx : your user name at SLAC
   cd /xxx/xxx : the directory which contains files to move
   mget xxx : the files you want to move. You can use wild card as the example.
