FTP Programs
FTP (file transfer protocol) programs can be used to upload files to
the Faculty servers.
There are a number of ftp applications available. For example:
In some versions of Microsoft Internet Explorer for Windows, you can
use a URL of the form ftp://userid@hostname/ .
You
can then
copy, paste, drag and delete in the Internet Explorer Window.
- for the Faculty server use ftp://userid@ftp.educ.ubc.ca/
- for the CMS Lab server (My/Web Space) use ftp://userid@web.educ.ubc.ca/
- you will see two directories corresponding to My and Web
Space
In addition, Microsoft Windows and UNIX variants such as
Linux and MacOS X have a basic command-line ftp. See their
on-line help for more information on using these programs.
