|
||
|
|
<div><p>The File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server arranges the information
|
||
|
|
units of a file system in a multiple-level tree-like structure.</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><p>The i5/OS™ file systems that you can use with
|
||
|
|
FTP vary depending on the release level of the operating system. File systems
|
||
|
|
on i5/OS can
|
||
|
|
use different terms for data and the hierarchical grouping of data.</p>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Naming conventions</h4><p>Each i5/OS file system
|
||
|
|
has its own set of rules for naming files. The format you use to name any
|
||
|
|
file must adhere to the naming conventions of the file system in which it
|
||
|
|
resides. Formats and examples of file names for FTP-enabled i5/OS file systems
|
||
|
|
are described in the topic <a href="../ifs/rzaaxkickoff.htm">Integrated file system</a>. The server can provide
|
||
|
|
naming information for files on non-iSeries servers when you use the QUOTE
|
||
|
|
HELP subcommand.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p><strong>FTP server NAMEFMT</strong></p>
|
||
|
|
<p>When
|
||
|
|
an FTP server session is started, NAMEFMT is set to a value of 0. You can
|
||
|
|
change the NAMEFMT value by using the SITE subcommand.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The server automatically
|
||
|
|
switches from the default of NAMEFMT 0 to NAMEFMT 1 when the 'first' file
|
||
|
|
or pathname parameter received in a subcommand either:</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul><li>Starts with a slash (/) or a tilde (~) character</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
<p>or</p>
|
||
|
|
<ul><li>Is blank (except for the LIST and NLST subcommands)</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
<p>Any subsequent server subcommands with a file or path name parameter
|
||
|
|
will not affect the NAMEFMT value. In addition to changing the NAMEFMT, the
|
||
|
|
server reply for the subcommand will include a statement saying that the NAMEFMT
|
||
|
|
value has been changed.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>For example, the server NAMEFMT value will be
|
||
|
|
changed to "1" if the first server subcommand with a file or path name is:</p>
|
||
|
|
<pre> CWD /DIR1/DIR2A</pre>
|
||
|
|
<p>The server reply will be:</p>
|
||
|
|
<pre> 250-NAMEFMT set to 1.
|
||
|
|
250 Current directory changed to /DIR1/DIR2A.</pre>
|
||
|
|
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> This capability
|
||
|
|
enables the typical Web browser, which requires NAMEFMT 1, to interact with iSeries™ FTP
|
||
|
|
servers without issuing a SITE NAMEFMT 1 subcommand.</div>
