Using FTP
FTP is scheduled at the RTE Command Interpreter level (CI>). FTP can be invoked with or without the following parameters.
FTP
Disables interactive prompting during multiplefile | |
| operations. Interactive prompting lets you selectively |
| proceed with each file. |
Logs FTP output to filename in addition to the user's | |
| terminal. If filename is omitted, then FTP.LOG is used. |
| There must be no space between |
| filename already exists, output is appended to the file. |
Disables autologin. If autologin is disabled, you must | |
| use the USER command to login to a remote host. If |
| autologin is enabled, FTP prompts for a user name once a |
| connection is established to a remote host. |
Accepts input from the transfer file specified by | |
| filename. There must be no space between |
| file name. |
Enables verbose output. Verbose output displays all | |
| responses from any remote host that you are connected to. |
| These responses indicate whether FTP commands |
| completed successfully and the file transfer statistics. |
Disables file name globbing during multiple file | |
| operations. Globbing expands the wild card characters |
| before proceeding with the multiple command. |
Enables quiet mode for transfer files. The normal | |
| informative messags are not output to the terminal. |
Specifies the user and password to use. FTP will use the | |
| username and password to automatically logon to the host |
| system. If either one needs lower case characters, the |
| string must be surrounded by back quotes ('). An example |
| is: |
host | Specifies the host to which you want to log on. You may |
| use the host's node name or IP address for the host |
| parameter. The syntax for the host's node name is |
| node.[.domain[.organization], and the syntax |
| for the IP address is nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn. Both are |
| further described in the NSARPA/1000 User/Programmer |
| Reference Manual. |
| If host is not specified, FTP displays the FTP prompt and |
| waits for you to enter an FTP command. In this case, you |
| must specify the OPEN command to open a connection to a |
| host. |
