STATUS

Writes the current status of FTP to the terminal.

STA[TUS]

STRUCT

Sets the FTP file transfer structure to the specified structure.

STR[UCT] struct_name

struct_name

Specifies the FTP file transfer structure. Currently, the only

 

supported file transfer structure is file. File structure means

 

that there is no internal structure and the file is considered to

 

be a continuous sequence of data bytes.

SYSTEM

Returns the type of the operating system running on the server.

SY[STEM]

TR

Specifies a local command input file (also called a transfer file) containing FTP commands.

TR local_file

 

local_file

Specifies a local transfer file containing FTP commands. FTP

 

executes the commands in this file. The TR command lets you

 

execute FTP from a command file rather than entering each

 

FTP command via your terminal keyboard. You may include

 

any valid FTP commands in the transfer file. FTP terminates

 

when the EXIT, BYE, or QUIT command is executed. If the

 

endoffile is found before any of these commands, control is

 

passed back to FTP.

TYPE

Sets the FTP file transfer type to the specified type.

TY[PE] [type_name]

type_name

Specifies the FTP file transfer type. Currently, type_name

 

may be one of the following:

 

 ASCII, A = set the file transfer type to ASCII.

 

 BINARY, B, I, = set the file transfer type to binary.

 

If this parameter is omitted, TYPE displays the current FTP file

 

transfer type on the terminal.
