CEMML Remote Access
CEMML has an anonymous FTP site that is available for file upload
and download. Click the appropriate link below to open the site in
your browser.
Incoming data (for receipt by on site employees):
ftp://ftp.cemml.colostate.edu/pub/incoming/
Outgoing Data (external public download):
ftp://ftp.cemml.colostate.edu/pub/outgoing/
User ID and Password:
If prompted, enter anonymous for the
user ID and your e-mail address for the password.
Data Expiration:
FTP site contents older than 7 days are automatically removed.
Difficulties:
If you are experiencing problems using FTP, you may be able to
solve the problem yourself: There are two types of FTP: passive
and active.
Your application needs to be configured to use passive
mode. Some older FTP clients, don't support passive FTP, most
notably the
one used in a DOS command
window! However, Firefox and Internet Explorer do and most of these come
with passive FTP set to default. If you are having problems with
Internet Explorer
and FTP, click on 'Tools' then 'Options' and then the 'Advanced' tab. Look
for the "Use Passive FTP" option and toggle this option.
The CEMML 'incoming' ftp directory does not allow folder structures
deeper than three (3) directories deep. If your data requires
such a complex structure then compress (zip) the data into a
single file before transfer.
General FTP Information:
FTP(File Transfer Protocol) is a standard that allows users to
transfer files from one computer to another over a network.
FTP can be used to upload and download files from specified parts
of other servers. Anonymous FTP directories store items that are
made freely available to the public. Anonymous simply
means a password is not needed to get access to these areas.
To download a file using your browser simply click the link for
the file. In some cases you may need to hold down the Shift key
while clicking on the link.
Many browsers allow you to upload files by dragging items from
the Windows Explorer window and dropping them on the browser window
showing the FTP site.
