RE: FTP Support on Redboot


Hello Gary,

I need to support Client FTP for downloading images.

I understand that Redboot has a minimal stack ( UDP support for doing a TFTP
). 

For FTP, I think the task is to remove the standalone stack and insert a
full fledged TCP/IP stack ( Open BSD/ Free BSD). Am i right?

Please explain me the process of achieving this.

Thanks,
Vedaraman.

What sort of FTP support are you looking for?  client FTP for 
downloading images?  FTP server (for some other purpose)?

Yes, RedBoot is capable of handling this.  All you need do is define a 
gateway (using 'fconfig')
