Sun MediaCenter Server
FTP Daemon
This chapter describes the Sun MediaCenter server FTP daemon. This daemon
allows any
ftp user—on any operating system/hardware platform—to access video
files on a Sun MediaCenter server. In addition to this video server support, the
daemon supports the “traditional” FTP functions described in the
ftp (1) man page.
The video-file functions provided by the FTP daemon require no special client-side
software. Also, the Sun MediaCenter FTP daemon supports any
ftp client that
conforms to the FTP protocol, regardless of the platform on which it is running.
FTP client’s support for video files is illustrated in FIGURE 6-1 .
