The FileTransfer Sample

The FileTransfer Sample

FileTransfer is a simple command-line utility that can be used to transfer files from one host to another.

The program is operated from the command line, and can be invoked using the following syntax:

FileTransfer receive tcp|udp <port>
FileTransfer send tcp|udp <hostname> <port> <filename>

For example:

Start a server in UDP mode, waiting in the port 2345 for a client to submit a file.

FileTransfer receive udp 2345

Upload a file to a server using UDP mode.

FileTransfer send udp 192.168.0.100 2345 file.dat

The output should look similar to the following:
