UNIX/Linux

For more information on the system requirements for using a UNIX/Linux computer as an FTP server, see "System Requirements"
in "Sending Data, " on p. 2-6.
In some environments, detailed settings may be required in order to use FTP. For details, consult your network administrator.
1
Log in to a workstation as a superuser → set up the users who send documents from the machine,
and their passwords .
Enter a user name and a password not longer than 24 alphanumeric characters.
2
Create a shared directory to be used for recipient addresses, and then enable read access and write
access by the users who will be sending data .
3
Set a recipient address using the control panel .
Sample recipient setting:
•
Server side settings:
[Host Name]: starfish
[Domain]: organization.company.com
The user's home directory is /home/hsato, and /home/hsato/share is the data destination
•
The machine's recipient settings:
<Protocol>: FTP
[Host Name]: starfish.organization.company.com
[Folder Path]: Enter one of the following:
share (when using relative path)
/home/hsato/share (when using absolute path)
[User]: User name entered in step 1
[Password]: Password for the above user
For a sample screen, see the example of Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7/Server 2003/Server 2008 screen (See "Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7/Server
2003/Server 2008, " on p. 4-29.)
•
To use the host name of the above example for [Host Name], it is necessary to use a DNS server. (This applies even if the machine and
the FTP server are in the same subnet.) If no DNS server is available, the host name setting should be specified using the IP address of
the FTP server.
•
Up to 128 alphanumeric characters can be entered for [Host Name] on the control panel. Also, up to 255 alphanumeric characters can
be entered for [Folder Path].
•
If you switch the language of the touch panel display, [Host Name] and [Folder Path] may not be displayed correctly.
•
If you want to send to an IPv4 host using an FTP port other than port 21, set [Host Name] using the following format:
<IPv4 address of FTP server>:<Port number>
Example: 192.168.1.21:21000
•
To send to an IPv6 host, set [Host Name] using the following format:
<IPv6 address>:<Port number>
Example: [5aed:90a0:bc05:01d2:568a:2fc0:0001:12ee]:21000
