- In your system login, identify a job as FTP by looking at the
- F$MODE() .Eqs. "NETWORK" and the process name starting with "<FTP".
- Then check if you want the process to login. If you don't, then
- invoke FTP:
-
- $ multinet ftp/server/reject/message="Go away, you do not have the identifier"
- $ logout
