| | RFC 959 (rfc959) - File Transfer Protocol (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22) |
 | | Three file structures are defined in FTP: file-structure, where there is no internal structure and the file is considered to be a continuous sequence of data bytes, record-structure, where the file is made up of sequential records, and page-structure, where the file is made up of independent indexed pages. |
 | | FTP commands may be partitioned as those specifying access-control identifiers, data transfer parameters, or FTP service requests. |
 | | FTP REPLIES Replies to File Transfer Protocol commands are devised to ensure the synchronization of requests and actions in the process of file transfer, and to guarantee that the user process always knows the state of the Server. |
