ICL FTF File Transfer

FEs

No formatting action is specified by end of record but the
formatting actions CR, LF, NL, BS, FF, NP may be
represented by embedded characters.

Negotiate

FTF negotiates with the remote host to decide on the text
formatting required.

No formatting

No formatting actions are implied by end of record or by
emdedded characters.

Maximum Record Size

Factory default: 1024

This specifies the maximum record size to be found in the data being transmitted.
Records that are larger than this will be fragmented. This may have the effect of
inserting spurious new lines depending on the Text Formatting setting.

Maximum Transfer Size

Factory default: Unspecified

This specifies the maximum transfer size that will be allowed on this transfer.

Timeout Interval(s)

Factory default: 600

This specifies the timeout, in seconds, that FTF uses to decide when a transfer should
be abandoned.

Horizontal Tab Settings

Factory default: Unspecified

This text box enables you to specify a pattern to be used for expanding tabs to spaces
by typing spaces where there are no tab stops and an asterisk where there
is one. A short pattern repeats up to the end of the line.

DRS Compatibility

Factory default: Unselected

This option should be selected if a DRS system is involved in the transfer. It tells the
FTF initiator and responder to make allowances for the limited level of implementa-
tion in the standard DRS File Transfer product. Checking this box will not prevent
transfers from working with VME, which has a full implementation.

Retry Connect

Factory default: Unselected

When this option is selected, FTF will retry failed connect requests indefinitely,
otherwise, FTF will stop if it cannot connect to the remote host.
