Troubleshooting
Remote User
NOTE Passwords can only be entered once. For example, if the user enters the
account password in the USER command string, do not re-enter it at the
password prompt.
• Try to log on from MPE/iX (HELLO user.account,group)
• Check that the LOOP type NI is active by issuing NETCONTROL
NI=niname;STATUS.
• Check the privileges on the FTP system files: issue a :listf
@.arpa.sys,3. For each file, the output under SECURITY should
be as follows:
Cannot Transfer Files
For remote users, first check that verbose and debug are on.
• Supported file types: must be binary, bytestream, or ASCII, fixed or
variable records.
• Check The default file transfer type being used. Enter: ftp> TYPE
• Check the size of records, and file types supported on the remote host
and MPE/iX. For MPE/iX specific information, refer to the HP ARPA
File Transfer Protocol User’s Guide.
• Check how file names are entered: some systems support both upper
and lower case file names. Some systems support characters in file
names that are not supported on MPE/iX.
