Once you have FTP installed and running, you can test FTP
in loopback mode and to a remote system.

You can test FTP in loopback mode by establishing an FTP session
on your local node as in the following sample session. In loopback,
you are accessing and seeing responses from the MPE/iX FTP server.
Enter the following at the MPE/iX prompt:
FTP.ARPA.SYS
Connect and Log On in Loopback
Connect to your local node by entering the local node name.
For example:
Enter a user account on your system, then the passwords when
prompted:
ftp> Name (username) USERNAME.MYACCT |
331 Password required for USERNAME.MYACCT [userpass] [,acctpass] [,grouppass] Password: (enter password) |
List the files in the current group:
150 File LISTF opened; data connection will be opened |
ACCOUNT = MYACCT GROUP = MYGROUP |
FILENAME CODE -----------LOGICAL RECORD----------- |

PROGRAMX 256W FB 700 1350 |
nnn bytes received in n.nn seconds (n.nn Kbytes/sec) |
Choose a file to transfer from you account, back to the same
account with a different target name:
ftp> GET NSCREEN2 TESTFILE |
Check to see that the file transfer was successful by issuing
an FTP LS command:
nnn bytes sent in n.nn seconds: (n.nn Kbytes/sec) |
End the session by entering the FTP command QUIT: ftp> QUIT.
