version number of the FTP Server as well as the MAC address, serial num-
ber and operating system of the machine hosting the server.

web browsers. Drag-and-drop capability is available using this environ-
ment.

browser.
S Click EXITME.BIN to execute a SITE EXIT command.
S Click REBOOTME.BIN to execute SITE BOOT command.

S Securi ty:
A customer configurable access control list may be installed on the
700 Color Computer. This list will allow customers to restrict access
via the FTP Server to users they wish and is in addition to default
Intermec accounts that are disabled using the -F0 option at runtime.
The access control list is named FTPDCE.TXT and is placed in the
same directory on the 700 Color Computer as the FTPDCE.EXE
server. The FTP Server encrypts this file to keep the information safe
from unauthorized users. This file is encrypted when the FTP Server
is started so a file that is placed onto the 700 Color Computer after
the FTP Server starts will require a r estart of the FTP Server to take
effect.
The format of the FTPDCE.TXT is as follows:
FTPDCE:user1!passwd1<cr><lf>user2!passwd2<cr><lf>user3
!passwd3<cr><lf>...
Note: The user accounts and passwords are case sensitive.
Once the access control list is encrypted on the 700 Color Computer,
the FTP Server hides this f ile from users. Once an access control list
is installed on the 700 Color Computer, a new one is not accepted by
the FTP Server u ntil the previous one is removed. Encrypted access
control lists are not portable between 700 Color Computers.
Stopping the FTP Server from Your Application
To allow application programmers the ability to programmatically shut
down the FTP Server, the FTP Server periodically tests to see if a named
event is signaled. ITC_IFTP_STOP is the name of this event.
