- When logged on, change directory to "incoming" by entering: - Check that you are in the correct directory (pub/incoming) by entering the command "pwd" (print working directory). - Change transfer type to ASCII by entering "ascii" if the data files are text and you are not sending it from a UNIX machine. If the file is an image file, or a special PC format (word processor, spread sheet, presentation graphics) do not change the type to ascii, but make sure the transfer type is binary by entering "bin". - Use "put filename", where "filename" is the name of your file, or for multiple files use "mput *.*" or "mput *" to transmit the data. When transferring multiple files you can turn off the prompt for each filename by typing "prompt" before you type the "mput" command. - After completion of file transmission, enter "ls" to obtain a list of files that were sent, both by you and other recent data submitters. - Enter "bye" to log off.
