S Use the GET command on these files to have the FTP Server execute
these commands.
S Securi ty:
A customer configurable access control list may be installed on the
700 Series Computer. This list will allow customers to restrict access
via the FTP Server to the users they wish. This is in addition to the
default Intermec account which can be disabled using the -F0 option
at runtime.
The access control list is named FTPDCE.T XT and is placed i n the
same directory on the 700 Series Computer as the FTPDCE.EXE
server. The FTP Server will encrypt 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 Series Computer
after the FTP Server starts will require a restart 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!pas
swd3<cr><lf>...
Note: The user accounts and passwords are case sensitive.
Once the access control list is encrypted on the 700 Series Computer, the
FTP Serve r hides this file f rom users. Once an access control list is
installed on the 700 Series Computer, a new one is not accepted by the
FTP Server until the previous one is removed. Encrypted access control
lists are not portable between 700 Series 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. The name for this event is “ITC_IFTP_STOP” (no
quotes).
For examples on how to use events, consult the Microsoft Developer Net-
work Library at http://www.msdn.com. The MSDN Library is an essential
resource for developers using Microsoft tools, products, and technologies.
It contains a bounty of technical programming information, including
sample code, documentation, technical articles, and reference guides.
