6.4 FTP server / client
ACD Windows CE devices feature an integrated FTP server. FTP client functions are available as API or as
a command line tool.
6.4.1 FTP server service (Windows CE device as server)
With the User name/password and known IP address, it is easy to upload/download files to/from the device
with the FTP server service on CE devices.
It is a relatively simple server which means that long folder/file names can be reduced in size on the client
display, especially when the file names contain separators. For example, some graphic FTP clients will
shorten “Microsoft Remote Display Control” to simply “Control”.

and FTP client TotalCommander) should be followed:

Template2=MM-DD-YY hh:mm -d------------ n*
•
Reboot TotalCommander
•
Go to Connect FTP
Edit to change the server type from “Automatic recognition” to “WinCE”
