I've never been an IBM employee, but had a copy of ALMCOPY installed on my 
PC - so it was publically available.  But that PC ran OS/2.  Not sure if 
ALMCOPY ran on any PC OS besides OS/2, but google finds lots of hits for 
ALMCOPY.

Gregg--Digging back far into my memory banks, in a previous life as an IBM 

employee, I seem to recall that ALMCOPY was an IBM Internal Use Only 
program that was never made available.  It was probably written by someone 

at the Almaden research center, hence the name.  I vaguely recall that it 
was used, kind of the way that IND$FILE is used to transfer or copy files 
between the host and PC but that the transfer was initiated from the host 
rather than from a PC screen.  It may have required OS/2 as the PC 
connection, but I'm not sure of that.  I'm sure that you can find other 
products that will do the same thing and are up to date and supported.
