HP Integrity NonStop H-Series - Manual (Page 43)

Guardian personality. However, if OSS is not running, or an invalid or non-existent initial directory
is set, the FTP code allows the normal user to be logged on with the Guardian personality.
NOTE: For the anonymous user, if an invalid or non-existent INITIAL-DIRECTORY is provided or
if OSS is not running, the anonymous user logon will be denied.
Logging On by Responding to Prompts
The following example illustrates how FTP prompts you for information when you omit the -n option,
but no FTPCSTM file entry exists for the remote system:
ftp> open warehs1
Connecting to warehs1.zzzco.com....Established
Name (warehs1:guest): troy
Password: zombie
You must follow the conventions of the system to which you are connected when entering your user
name and password. FTP requires that you supply a password when logging on. If you are logging
on to a NonStop system and do not have a password defined on that system, you can enter a
space for the password.
Logging On with the User Command
If you specify the -n option when you start FTP, you must use the user command to log on; for
example, the next command specifies a user named troy, whose password is zombie, and an
whose account is named sales:
ftp> user troy zombie sales
Logging Off and Stopping an FTP Session
To log off a remote system but to continue your local FTP session, use either the close or disconnect
command:
ftp> close
You can then use the open command to log on to another remote system.
If you want to stop your FTP session and at the same time log off the remote system, use either the
bye
or quit command:
ftp> bye
Stopping a File Transfer Operation
To interrupt a file transfer operation, press the BREAK key. At the command interpreter prompt,
use the STOP command to abort the FTP process:
ftp> put newaccts
Press BREAK key.
TACL 6> stop
Controlling FTP Interaction
FTP provides several ways you can control your interaction with the system. You can use toggle
commands to turn mechanisms such as the ringing of a bell on or off. In addition to the toggle
commands, you can use the reset command to clear the reply queue when a remote server violates
the FTP protocol.
