We have a bunch of REAL*4 binary files on a VMS machine.
We want to move them to an ULTRIX machine.  Here are the 
two $64,000,000 questions:

1) If we want to ftp the binaries, how should they be converted
   first before ftping them to the Ultrix machine?

2) What are the differences between the REAL*4 format on
   VMS and Ultrix?

Correct answers will be rewarded with a network cookie!
