MODULE 1 – FTP Task

For the FTP task I decided to use windows XP’s built in FTP client. I opened explorer and browsed to the address ftp://recall.curtin.edu.au/ when there I was shown the root directory for the anonymous users FTP login. The great thing about this is that I can browse the remote FTP server as if it were a local drive on my computer.

There were two folders, rob and MSC. I looked in the Rob folder and did not find what I was looking for only some random photos .. So clicking on MSC I can see the readme.txt file I was looking for. Hooray. Double clicking on this file downloaded it to my temporary internet files and allowed me to open the document to discover that CAPITALIZATION matters.
