NAME
xtftp - FTP protocol server driver

xtftp -h hostname [ -p port ] [ -d ] [ -u username ] [ -w password ] [ -o outfile ] [ -i infile ] [ -D directory ] [ -T timeout ] [ -A host ] [ -T ] [ -B ]
DESCRIPTION
xtftp is a terminal server program for use by GNUspool where the
destination is a server which accepts FTP protocol. Data is taken from
standard input, unless overridden by the -i option.
OPTIONS
- -h hostname
- This is the host name or IP address to be used to access the
printer. In GNUspool setup files, it may be appropriate to substitute $SPOOLDEV or $SPOOLPTR here. - -A hostname
- Specifies the sending hostname or IP address to be as given.
This may be required when sending from hosts with multiple IP
addresses. - -p port number
- This is the port number to be used, if not ftp.
- -u user This is the user name to be quoted to the FTP server.
- -w word This is the password to be quoted to the FTP server.
- -o outfile
- This is the output file to be stored at the server end. In some
cases this may designate the actual printer, and it may be
useful to use $SPOOLDEV as the argument to be expanded in
GNUspool setup files. - -D directory
- This is the output file to be stored in at the server end, if
not the "home directory". In some cases this may designate tha actual printer, and it may be useful to use $SPOOLDEV as the
argument to be expanded in GNUspool setup files. - -T timeout
- This gives the timeout in milliseconds to await for responses
from the server. - -i input
- Specify input file if not standard input.
- -t Specify text mode.
- -b Specify binary mode.
- -d Debug. Displays activities on standard error. Increasing
- information is given if more than one -d option is specified.
