FTP
Clients
FTP clients
are applications that make the File Transfer Protocol,
or FTP, easy to use. FTP is designed for the transmission
of files across the Internet or networks using TCP/IP.
When you install TCP/IP on your computer, FTP is also
installed. When you access an FTP site using an FTP client,
it appears similar to viewing files and directories on
your hard disk. You can tunnel down into directories
and subdirectories, etc. You can choose files that you
want to upload, or download from the web server. |

and exchange files. |
