The subdirectory incoming has been reserved for collaborators who want to send files to SLAC users. For example, assume that Ann wants to transfer the file cheptalk.ps to SLAC user Bill.
| WARNING: Files are automatically expired from the incoming directory after three days. If Bill does not retrieve the file within that time it will be deleted. |
- Bill must have a UNIX account.
- To obtain a UNIX account, he must fill out the account form and have it signed by his manager or group czar.
- Ann can create a directory to contain her file and transfer her file to with these commands:
ftp ftp.slac.stanford.edu
Name: anonymous
Password: ann@hep.physics.edu (the password will not display on screen)
cd incoming
mkdir bill
binary (to prevent linend conversions which may damage some files.)
put cheptalk.ps
quit - Ann tells Bill that file cheptalk.ps is in subdirectory incoming/bill.
