FTP Server Startup
The FTP Server software can be loaded from the NetWare
®
server using the
following command:
nwftpd
The server takes the default configuration file SYS:/ETC/FTPSERV.CFG. On
installation, this configuration file has all the parameters, commented, with
their default values.
To start the NetWare FTP Server software with a different configuration file
(for example, MYCONFIG.CFG), place the file in the SYS:/ETC directory
and enter the following at the command line:
nwftpd -c myconfig.cfg
NOTE: If there is any change in the .CFG file, nwftpd should be reloaded.
