VFTPD
The VFTPD (VPS File Transfer Protocol Daemon) resource is a background process
that provides file transfer capability to application programs. This program is
intended for high-volume file transfers, and runs as a memory-resident process.
VFTPD provides for application programs the same functionality as does the standard
FTP Solaris utility. Applications can access this external resource by using the SEND
RESOURCE construct.
The number of running FTP processes determines the number of transfers that can be
performed concurrently. These processes can be used for any host.
The command syntax and arguments are as follows:
