Chapter 3 Using the FTP Client : Connecting with the FTP Server

Connecting with the FTP Server
The FTP Server administrator provides to each FTP Client a host name, username, and password that must be used to access the FTP Server.
Depending on the FTP Client you are using, you may have a different interface but the following information has to be provided to establish an FTP connection. All data has to be provided from the FTP Server administrator to the FTP Clients before they log in.
Host   This is the name of the FTP Server machine with which the FTP Client wants to connect
Username   Partner and User authentication information provided by the FTP Server Host to exchange B2B documents. It is in the format Trading Partner/user, which means that it contains also the name of the Trading Partner with whom this external user is associated .
Password   Password for the user that has been set up by the FTP Server administrator
Port   This is the port of the FTP Server machine to which the FTP Client wants to connect.
Each FTP Client will have a slightly different usage, which will be explained by the provider of the software package.
