File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Is a network protocol used to exchange and manipulate files over the internet.
It promotes the sharing of files, encourages indirect use of remote computers, shields the user from variations in file storage systems among different hosts and to transfer data reliability and efficiently.
However, FTP is particularly unsecure method of transferring files because there is no method specified for transferring Data in an encrypted Fashion. This means that transferred files on FTP can be intercepted by anyone on the same network.
This problem can be overcome by using SFTP (SSH file transfer protocol) or FTPS…
In MPI we have been using the FTP client called Fetch (which has the cutest little picture of a puppy biting a floppy disk!)
We are also using a cool simple website program called iweb! Which is a lot of fun!!! I love how easy it is to use and how many little cool templates you can alter!! It is so simple to just add stuff and delete things-, which is awesome!
I WOULD post a link to my iWeb but unfortunately it has disappeared!? WHYYYYYYYYY???!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? *goes and cries in a corner*
