FTP Share is a set of communications applications which allows a Macintosh computer to be used as a FTP file server. It can be connected to by any computer with an FTP client application over a TCP/IP network.
It provides a user access scheme similar to that of Apple's File Sharing in System 7.0 and it allows :
- Files to be transfered between a Macintosh and FTP Clients,
- Up to 20 clients to connect at the same time,
- An access profile to be given to each user,
- Guest users to connect to the file server,
- Support of Aliases and many other featuresâ•”
As the File Sharing, FTP Share comprises four components :
- FTP Share Setup : an application to start, stop and configure the server,
- FTP Share Monitor : an application to monitor the server's activity,
- FTP Share Users : an application to define the users profiles,
- FTP Share Extension : an INIT to install in the System Folder.
FTP Share works in the background of the Macintosh leaving it free to be used as usual. It also provides a monitor which allows you to see who is connected to the file server and which folders are being accessed.
Although FTP Share supports some special System 7.0 features such as Aliases and Balloon Help, it can also be used on System 6.0.4 machines.
