8900NET Software Update From FTP Server
Password Protection for Software Upgrades
The FTPD distributed for software downloads provides user name and
password protection for software updates. User name and password entry
is required in the Software Update web pages.
The assignment of user names and passwords for a given FTP root direc-
tory is administered by editing the ftpuser.sms file included in the FTPD
distribution (see
Step 3 of this procedure). This file initially contains the
default user name and password (user name: moduser, password:
moduser) for access to the modular root directory and instructions for
setting up an account.
The contents of the file are shown in Figure 51 . (The file also includes the
SMS7000 account for customers with Thomson Grass Valley SMS routers.)

directory.
