File Transfer Protocol
- Protocol
  - The set of rules controlling communication between devices
- Email
  - Files can be sent as an attachment on an email
  - Larger files take longer to send
- How does FTP work?
  - The file being sent is subdivided into packets
  - Once each package is recieved, it is checked for errors
    - Errors may make the file unreadable
  - Once the package has been checked, a confirmation message will be sent to the sender which indicates the next packet to be sent
  - If there was an error with the packet, it is resent and checked again
  - This is protocol for sending files.
- What is FTP frequently used for?
  - Transferring music files on the internet
    - E.g. When purchasing music from iTunes
  - Downloading a user manual from a website
  - Uploading files to web servers
    - Usually from home/company computers so the files can be accessed from a website

JoshuaCCarter, hmm, yeah, in case you are searching for something like that then it seems to me that you need to check turboftp as it's a scheduled ftp and it's a convenient one. I have used some various options but I guess that it's the most reliable one. Hope that you will check them too there. Best wishes
