FTP Users On MPE/iX, there are two groups of FTP users: MPE/iX FTP users accessing remote systems with FTP user commands, and remote system FTP users accessing the FTP server on MPE/iX. These user needs are described below. MPE/iX FTP Users MPE/iX FTP users need the ARPA domain names, IP addresses, or NS node names and logon accounts for remote systems they can access with FTP user commands. To allow users to use alias names, you can identify remote systems in the network directory as NS node names. Standard ARPA domain names are supported. Another method for providing alias names is suggesting users create MPE/iX CI variables containing the IP addresses for frequently accessed systems or using UDCs or command files (see Chapter 4, Using FTP in the HP ARPA File Transfer Protocol User's Guide for examples.) Remote FTP Users Remote FTP users accessing the FTP server will need the: * Node name or IP address of the MPE/iX system, * User logon account and passwords, * MPE/iX file system information. For users unfamiliar with the MPE/iX file system, see Appendix B, Using the FTP Server. This information is also provided in an online text file: FTPDOC.ARPA.SYS which can be transferred to remote users using FTP.
