PS3-FTP v1.0 Homebrew App Arrives, Made with PSL1GHT SDK
The first legal PS3 ftp server has arrived, courtesy of stoneMcClane. The previous ftp servers for PS3 used the Sony SDK. However, PS3FTP is coded with the PSL1GHT Open SDK, making it completely legal.
1) To start the FTP server, just run the PS3-FTP.self via ps3load/wiiload or install the
PS3-FTP.pkg and run it directly from the XMB on your PS3.
2) Configure your FTP Client to use passive mode and only one FTP connection at a time.
3) Connect to your PS3's IP on port 21 with an FTP client of your choice. If you don't
know the IP address of your PS3, go to Settings -> Network Settings in the XMB, it is
listed there along with other network settings.
PS3-FTP has been tested and should be compatible with the following clients:
* Filezilla
* FlashFXP
* CuteFTP
* WinSCP
* Windows Explorer
* BSD/UNIX FTP shell client
4) To stop the server once it is running, you have to be connected to your PS3 with your
FTP client. Press and hold down the X button on your controller and terminate the
connection of your FTP client or just close the FTP client on your PC completely.
The PS3-FTP server should then shutdown and your PS3 should return to the XMB.
If you are a developer, you can also stop and restart PS3-FTP via telnet. Simply
connect to the FTP Port (21) of your PS3 via telnet and type "QUIT!" or "QUITR". If
you are running Unix and have the "expect" interpreter installed, you can use the
"stop" and "restart" scripts that are located at the repository's root directory.
(Remember to close the connection of your FTP client before trying to connect via telnet)
