FTP Services

 

LPC1768 contains a small File System to store additional web pages.

• maximum size of all files combined must be less than 224KB
• there must be less than 76 files
• File names must be 23 characters or less
• File names are case sensitive
• there is only 1 directory and sub-directories are not supported
• the main HTML file must be of the form filename.htm
• ftp put, delete are slow due to the Flash writes, which can take 20 seconds or more
• any BASIC program must be STOP 'ed, otherwise ftp will not log you in, or will ignore any requests

By default password protection is not used for FTP.
If logging in from a command prompt simply press enter when asked for Username and Password.
If password protection is desired go to the Controls page of ARMweb and select Use Password.
NOTE : The default user name is "user" and password "pass", when enabled.

Change these as desired and reset the node to apply changes.
Also on the Controls page, a file from the system may be chosen as the Main Page.
This then becomes the default page when browsing to http://ARMweb or to http://Nodes-IP-address .

The current implementation is aimed at using the simplest ftp interface, and it may not work with more complex ftp programs or browsers doing ftp.  We recommend using the Windows ftp from the DOS command prompt.  Here is a sample session used to copy the files for a web page to the ARMweb (192.168.0.48 was assigned by the DHCP, and the default username/pass were used (either enter user and pass, or just hit enter both times).

After the above ftp session a web page has been setup on the ARMweb.  It can be viewed at http://192.168.0.48/simple.htm.

To make that you are communicating with webBASIC start from the main page..

From then on, when you navigate to http://192.168.0.48/simple.htm .
