About Web Server |
A server is a
computer or device on a network that manages network resources and services
client requests. A Web server is a computer that delivers Web pages. The
server first fetches the page named index.html and downloads it to the
browser running on the client machine. (Be sure to name the first Web page as
index.html.) |

About FTP and SSH |
FTP is an acronym for file transfer protocol, which is one of the standard Internet protocols for sending files from one machine to another. Files of any type can be tranferred (though some may require a binary transfer). Also, it can be utilized to download files to a client computer. One can invoke FTP with execution of commands through a simple command line interface or with a graphical user interface (GUI). WS_FTP stands for WINSOCK FTP, which is a GUI based implementation of FTP. FTP is no longer a recommended way to transfer files.
A more secure solution for transferring files from one computer to another is SSH. KSU students have access to an SSH client program provided by ITS so long as they are students at KSU. You can download the SSH client program at https://its.kennesaw.edu/downloads/index.php That website has installtion instructions and your instructor will help you learn how to use the program. |
