Hi,
I am trying to transfer files from the real time target back to the host. And I am trying to avoid loading each file into RT's memory and do the low level tcp/ip or streaming transfer. is there any better way to do it? I notice I can use the FTP client, but in this case, I would need to set up a FTP server and is there any utility functions that I can look into? Another way I can think of is to use the email attachment, which is a bit of detour.
Thanks

The following KnowledgeBase article looks like it should be helpful. The related links also look promising for your applications.

Maggie,
Thanks for the reply.
actually, I am looking for some way I can make the FTP transfer programmably rather than using the MAX FTP tool.
Any ideas?
Thanks

I have found a couple other options, including a community example.
