Serv-U is an FTP Server program for Windows 95/98/2000/ME/XP and Windows NT 4.0. With Serv-U, your PC will be turned into an FTP server. This means that others on the computer network that you are connected to (the Internet for most people) can access your PC to copy, move, make, and delete files and directories, using the FTP protocol (FTP = File Transfer Protocol). This protocol dictates standard ways of communication between computers, so that many different types of computers, using different operating systems and file formats, can exchange files. In simplest terms user accounts are created and permissions granted to areas on the hard drive so that FTP Clients, like FTP Voyager, can download and upload files. There are FTP servers (and clients) for many different systems. Serv-U is meant for PCs running MS-Windows that have a WinSock version 1.1 compatible TCP/IP stack installed. This includes Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows XP, Windows NT 4, and Windows 2000. Serv-U is composed of two separate parts, the Engine and the user interface. The Serv-U Engine or Daemon is the heart of Serv-U. It does all the work of serving FTP commands from FTP clients. It is the software that performs all file transfers. The Serv-U Administrator program is the way you interact with the Serv-U Engine. It is used to configure Serv-U and to define users, specify access etc. Depending on the Serv-U Edition you are using Serv-U can handle both regular (clear-text) FTP and secure-FTP. The latter uses SSL/TLS to provide strong encryption (128 bits or more), protecting usernames, passwords, and file transfers. The Administrator program also uses SSL/TLS to encrypt all traffic between it and the Engine.
