Yeah, I'm sure that is how the ws came into play into forming the name of their program. Really wasn't what I was getting at.
WSftp is the name of the program. winsock is the transport mechanism it uses to establish its connetion. There are many winsock based ftp clients.... If someone were to say to me "I'm going to show you how to use winsock ftp" I would say, "which one?" If Ipswitch named the program winsock ftp at one time, then I would understand this usage. That is what I was getting at. -R^3 On Thu, 20 Dec 2001, Keith wrote: > > > On 20 Dec 2001 at 15:44, R^3 wrote: > > > I always believed wsftp (which we have been writing as ws_ftp in our > > local documentation) was the name of the program--named because it was > > written to utilize windows sockets. > > Windows Socket = winsock = ws > I hope that explains how the WS came into play > with IPSWITCHES FTP client. > -- > Best Regards, > > Keith NW OR Radio http://www.wvi.com/~n6jpa/nworradio/ > ========================================================== > Radio Shack Scanner Email List > http://groups.yahoo.com/group/rs_scanner/ > Rec Radio Swap: Radio Equipment Trade List > http://groups.yahoo.com/group/recradioswap/ > ========================================================== > > > > |------------------------------------------------| | Ryan Russo | | Academic Computing Web Group, (518) 442-4772 | |------------------------------------------------| Please visit http://www.ipswitch.com/support/mailing-lists.html to be removed from this list.
