Linux Fieldbus Coupler
4.5.3 FTP Client
The Linux fieldbus coupler incorporates an FTP client. This allows to
download files from the FTP server or to write files to the server via FTP. The
FTP client is installed in the
/bin
directory and can thus be used from every
directory by every user. Port 21 is used for the FTP protocol.
FTP Client Operation
In order to be able to use the FTP client, an FTP server and a user for the FTP
access must be installed on the remote PC. It is started by:
ftp <IP/hostname>
Example:
ftp 192.168.1.11
The FTP server asks for user and password. You can then execute commands
on the server. What commands are supported by the server can be queried by
the command:
help.
The server shows a list with all available FTP commands.
By
help <command>
you get a description of the queried command from the server.
Example:
help cd
