Prerequisites for using FTP

Before you can use FTP for Message Networking, you must:

• Set the Activate FTP field on the General Parameters page to Yes
• Change the default password for the icftp login. Message Networking allows FTP access for the login name icftp; it does not allow shell access.

To reset the FTP system password, complete the following:

1. Start at the Administration menu, and select Basic System Administration > Password Administration > Assign/Change Password.
   The system displays the Assign/Change Password page.
2. Select icftp from the Login menu.
3. Type the new password in the New Password field.
4. Type the new password again in the Re-enter New Password field.
5. Click Save.
   The password for the FTP process has now been updated.

6. Click Return to Main to return to the Administration menu.
