To create an anonymous user, enter
nwftpd -a [-c Configfile]
The server takes the anonymous user home directory from the configuration
file and displays it on the screen with the option to modify the directory.
NOTE:
The -a option modifies the configuration file for anonymous user access.
For this change to take place, reload nwftpd.
To load the Active Sessions Display utility, enter
ftpstat [-p port number]
The server takes a port number that the HTTP browser should connect to in
order to view the NetWare FTP active sessions. The default port is 2500.

Users can start an FTP session from a workstation running the FTP client
software using the following command:
ftp hostname | IP Address
where hostname is the name of the server in the DNS or IP address of the
NetWare server running the FTP service. The FTP client then prompts the user
for a username and password.
