3.6 FTP Server
The FTP Server included with the Qui supports standard (RFC 959). It does not
support SFTP or implicit FTPS, which uses different ports and is based on SSH rather than
SSL.
The configuration of the FTP server is accomplished with the Quick Panel+ Setup Tool. By
default, the server is not enabled. Once enabled, a background program will run, waiting for
clients to connect. Up to ten connections are supported. Sessions that are idle for five
minutes are terminated by the server.
The Server supports:
■
Non-secure operation. All information including username, password, and data is
transmitted with no encryption and susceptible to packet sniffing and various FTP
attacks.
Note: If the server status is changed, the Qui must be re-booted before changes
take effect.
3.6.1
Authentication of Remote Users
The server only supports anonymous login.
■
Anonymous with password requested (but not validated). This can prevent some
types of attacks and is required by some clients.
Once connected, a remote user is logged into the FTP root directory. This is available from
the Qui as \ and is the root of the flash device.
3.6.2
FTP with Removable Flash Devices
All removable flash devices appear to remote FTP users as directories off the FTP root
directory. PC Flash card partitions appear as directories such as \SDMemory and USB Flash
Keys as directories such as \Hard Disk. Full access privileges are granted for the client in
these folders/devices.
Removable flash device directories are captured when a session is opened and are not
changed while the session exists. If you start without an SD Card installed, you will have to
close your session and login again to see the SD Card directory. If the SD Card existed when
you logged in and is removed and
inserted, it will still work, provided the SD Card’s device
name did not change during reinsertion.
3.7 HTTP Server
The HTTP Server included with the Qui supports standard (RFC 2616).
The configuration of the HTTP server is accomplished with the Quick Panel+ Setup Tool. By
default, the server is not enabled. Once enabled, a background program will run, waiting for
clients to connect. The default web page is located in \Windows\www\wwwpub on the
Qui.
The Server supports:
■
Non-secure port 80 operation.
