Check content

If there is no FTP Server active, this is not applicable. Examine the “DTCPARMS” file for each active FTP server. If there is “:ANONYMOUS” or “:ANONYMOU” statement, this is a finding. Examine the “SRVRFTP” command. If “ANONYMOU” is coded, this is a finding.

Fix text

Ensure the “:ANONYMOUS” or “:ANONYMOU” statement is not coded in the “DTCPARMS” or “SRVRFTP” command.

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
