Although FXP is often considered a distinct protocol, it is in fact merely an extension of the FTP protocol and is specified in RFC 959:

User-PI - Server A (Dest) User-PI - Server B (Source) ------------------ ------------------ C->A : Connect C->B : Connect C->A : PASV A->C : 227 Entering Passive Mode. A1,A2,A3,A4,a1,a2 C->B : PORT A1,A2,A3,A4,a1,a2 B->C : 200 Okay C->A : STOR C->B : RETR B->A : Connect to HOST-A, PORT-a

Famous quotes containing the word technical:

    “Where there is the necessary technical skill to move mountains, there is no need for the faith that moves mountains.”
    —Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    “In effect, to follow, not to force the public inclination; to give a direction, a form, a technical dress, and a specific sanction, to the general sense of the community, is the true end of legislature.”
    —Edmund Burke (1729–1797)

    “The axioms of physics translate the laws of ethics. Thus, “the whole is greater than its part;” “reaction is equal to action;” “the smallest weight may be made to lift the greatest, the difference of weight being compensated by time;” and many the like propositions, which have an ethical as well as physical sense. These propositions have a much more extensive and universal sense when applied to human life, than when confined to technical use.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
