Newbie TCPIP/Internet Plugin Question

[Ron]

I'm not sure what you are trying to do, but both the old and the new TCP/IP server and client speak a completely different protocol from FTP.

You know FTP is designed to transfer files and the girder stuff is designed to transfer events/messages,.. right ?

Hello All,

I know I am late to the dance when it comes to Girder so excuse me if this has been answered (I have searched the forums). Can the TCPIP/Internet plugin be used as an FTP client? And if so is there any doc?

Thanks,

Alan

Ron,

Thanks for the reply. Basically what I am trying to do is use Girder, based on a keypress, go get a file off of a FTP server. I know I could issue a OS command to perform the FTP but I was trying to find a more elegent solution. I take it by your reply there is not a FTP plugin. By the way, your program was exactly what I was looking for.

Thanks,

Alan
