hey everybody, i have to write a simple file server for a school project. I found documention on rpcgen, which will be invaluable. Assuming i can get this to work, what might be a good way to transfer the file once i find it? I was thinking this shouldn't be too hard. I can just pass the name of a file to the 'server' and it will attempt to open it, with standard unix fopen. If it succeeds, would ftp be a good way to send it? Or break it up into chunks and send it back as a parameter? Is there some reasonably simple code that would get me started or give me ideas? Thanks in advance, jcm -- "That depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is." -President Bill Clinton "I don't know what you mean by the word 'ask.'" -CEO Bill Gates To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
