Is this correct?: When I PUT a file from an FTP client on Windows to an FTP server on Unix, that the FTP server is the party that:<br />
<br />
1) translates end-of-file ascii 26 (ctrl-z) to ascii 4 (ctrl-d)?<br />
<br />
2) strips/removes from file all 13 (CR) end-of-line characters from the file?<br />
<br />
Is it also true that both FTP parties really don't know &quot;who they're talking to?&quot;<br />
<br />
The receiving party just has to &quot;fix&quot; the file to make it compatible with the destination OS?

FTP ASCII-mode End-of-Line and End-of-File translation?

File sharing is the practice of distributing or providing access to digital media, such as computer programs, multimedia (audio, images and video), documents or electronic books. Common methods of storage, transmission and dispersion include manual sharing utilizing removable media, centralized servers on computer networks, World Wide Web-based hyperlinked documents, distributed peer-to-peer networking (P2P) and cloud-based file syncing.

File Sharing Software

Networking software modules are interfaced with a framework implemented on the machine's operating system that implements the networking functionality of the operating system. The best known frameworks are the TCP/IP model and the OSI model. Systems typically do not use a single protocol to handle a transmission. Instead they use a set of cooperating protocols, sometimes called a protocol family or protocol suite.[9] Some of the best known protocol suites include: IPX/SPX, X.25, AX.25, AppleTalk and TCP/IP. Other protocols indirectly related to networking include the hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) and its related technologies, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), Domain Name Server (DNS) and other Internet protocols.

Networking Protocols

A server is a computer program or a machine that waits for requests from other machines or software (clients) and responds to them. This architecture is called the client–server model. The clients may run on the same computer or may connect to the server over a network. The purpose of a server is to share data or hardware and software resources among clients. Typical computing servers are database servers, file servers, mail servers, print servers, web servers, game servers, and application servers.
