Question QG-004:
How do I access the ADINA ftp site?
Answer:
Sometimes, it is necessary to send files to or receive files from ADINA R & D.
If the file size is 4 MB or less, you can send it to us as an attachment in your
email. For larger files, we can exchange files via the ADINA ftp site.
To minimize the transfer time, we recommend that all files be compressed (e.g.
using winzip or gzip).
We show two ways to get files from or put files to the ftp site - command mode and
browser mode.
Command mode
In a Unix or DOS window,
ftp www.adina.com
login: anonymous
password: <your email address>
To put a file, say "xyz.zip", for us, (for text file, skip the binary command)
cd upload
binary
put xyz.zip
To get a file "abc.gz" from us, (for text file, skip the binary command)
cd download
binary
get abc.gz
Browser mode
Start your web browser, e.g. Internet explorer.
To put a file for us, point to the following URL location in the Address bar.
ftp://www.adina.com/upload
Drag your file into the folder. Note that you will not be able to see the
contents of the folder.
To get a file from us, you need to know the filename. Point to the
file, say "abc.gz" in the Address bar.
ftp://www.adina.com/download/abc.gz
You will be prompted for the directory to save the file.
