The first thing I would suggest looking at is access rights .
If it were a general network issue I would not expect it to always error at the same location .

Note: # cat /tmp/foo - regular file
/lib/a.lib /lib/b.lib /lib/c.lib /lib/d.lib
cat /tmp/foo | xargs cp /tmp/fred
cp: target /lib/d.lib is not a directory

Xargs normally places its substituted args last.
Why not try something like:
cp /lib/*.lib /tmp/fred
I think your command is failing because xargs creates the following command:
cp /tmp/fred /lib/a.lib /lib/b.lib /lib/c.lib /lib/d.lib.

Yes this is not very portable, I wonder why one would want to do something like this:`
char *cp ; reinterpret_cast<char *&>(a) = cp;
` and what it means?
Thx

In the original sample....
Reinterpret_cast<char *>(a) = cp would have been illegal because you_cast<char*>(a); c = cp;
is probably better to maintain and read, although it's longer (note of the cast.
Lvalue to assign cp to.

Is it possible to copy a single file to multiple directories using the cp command ?
I tried the following , which did not work:
cp file1 /foo/ /bar/ cp file1 {/foo/,/bar}

You can't do this....
You need to arrange to invoke cp multiple times - once per destination - for what you want to do; using, as you say, a loop or some other tool.
No, cp can copy multiple sources but will only copy to a single destination.

I'm a Linux guy and I'm used to copying directory trees with cp -a . OS X doesn't have -a option on cp ... but it does have the ditto command. I'm reading the man on ditto now, but is there anything I should specifically be looking out for?

According to the ....
Sorry that's not a direct answer.
There are also some filesystems where rsync is more efficient than cp .
As j04t pointed out that should be cp -pR
On OS X, you would do
cp -dRL src target
cp preserves.

Is it possible to run cp again after it was aborted and make it start where it ended last time (not overwrite data that's already copied, only copy what's still left)?

Answer Snippets (Read the full thread at serverfault):
You can....
It will only copy new data across, including if cp stopped half way through a big file.
However in your case, you can use rsync now.
Rsync is a great tool also: man page at -> http .
Use the -u switch, and see the cp man page.

Maybe your cp command is an alias? Try:
\cp -uf file folder/
yes | cp <whatever else>
unalias cp ?
Type "type cp" to see where it points, or if it is aliased..

I want to copy text files and only text files from src/ to dst/
groovy:000> "cp src/*.txt dst/".execute().text ===> groovy:000>
You can see the command executes w/out error but the file "src/test.txt" does not get copied to dst/
This also fails...

Your first example is trying to copy a file named * .
Wildcard expansion is performed by the shell, not by cp (or groovy).
