fsp_prof5

Overview

The .fsp_prof file contains data for logging in to a remote host over the network for file transfers by fsp commands. This file resides in the user's current or home directory on the machine initiating the file transfer. A system wide default file will be also used. If passwords are stored in this file, its permissions should be set to disallow read access by group and others (see chmod(1)).

The following tokens are recognized; they may be separated by SPACE or NEWLINE characters (except the host command which has to be on a line of its own):

host|machine name | internet-addr [ alias ...]

Identify a remote machine name. The auto-login process searches the .fsp_prof file for a token that matches the alias or hostname given. Once a match is made, the subsequent .fsp_prof tokens are processed, stopping when the EOF is reached or another host token is encountered.

[fsp] port port

Identify the remote fsp port.

local port port

Identify the local port to be used by fsp.

[fsp] directory dir

Set the directory in the FSP database.

local directory dir

delay delay

timeout tim

trace on | off

password password

Supply a password. Note: if this token is present the .fsp_prof file shouldn't be readable by anyone besides the user. See chmod(1).
