Using FTP File Servers

Windows XP Embedded WFR2 includes an FTP Upgrade utility that can be used to upgrade the XP Embedded thin client with Addons which are in Microsoft .msi form. This utility allows you to automatically or manually upgrade a thin client by downloading MSI packages from a specified FTP server. The MSI packages are stored on the FTP server in a directory in the FTP root path (this FTP file server name and root-path directory must be made available to the thin client). To select the upgrade options you want, use the FTP Addon Installer dialog box on the thin client as described in "Installing and Upgrading Addons Using the FTP Addon Installer."

Use the following guidelines to set up your servers:

•Automatic upgrades - Params.ini and the MSI package must be present on your FTP server (in the same path) to upgrade the thin client.

•DHCP upgrades - If the DHCP server is supplying the location of the MSI package, be sure to configure the DHCP Options (in Table 1) that you need (defaults are 161 - FTP server list and 162 - Root path to the FTP files).

•Anonymous log-on capability - The FTP server must provide anonymous log-on capability.

•User ID and Password - In the FTP Addon Installer dialog box, the default User name is anonymous and the default Password is Wyse.

Note

Use of DHCP is recommended. However, if a DHCP server is not available, fixed IP addresses (FTP Path) can be assigned using the FTP Addon Installer dialog box on the thin client.
