What is Topsecret_Ftp?
----------------------
Topsecret_Ftp is a linux program that lets you transfer files
across a network.
It offers security by encrypting files with YOUR OWN KEYS during the
transfer.
This program is a windows type interface or Graphics User Interface
(gui)
for the "Topsecret_Net" shell programs.
Please scan topsnet.htm or topsnet.html
to see how this program interacts with the shell programs.
Description
gui

server
topftp_s.tk
topsnet
client
topsftp_c.tk
topsget and topssend
This program has been tested on a network with Mandrake 7.0 linux distribution
which
includes the required GNU programs KDE, Netscape , Tk, Lynx, and Wget.
To check for Tk type "wish" at a bash console inside KDE ,
if you open a gui window you have Tk.
Setup
-----
Caution: Making upload directory accessible through download directory
increases security risks.
Keeping the same root directory for server and client is not recommended
either.
Extract all archived files to LOWER CASE.
Open a bash console, cd to root directory of where you want the server.
Copy all files to root server directory. Enter "chmod +x ./setup_s.sh"
to get permission to execute. Enter "./setup_s.sh" to setup server. Enter
"./topsftp_s.tk" to start server. Hit start server button.
Open a another bash console, cd to root directory of where you want
the client. Copy all files to root client directory. Enter "chmod +x ./setup_c.sh"
to get permission to execute.
Enter "./setup_c.sh" to setup server. Enter "./topsftp_c.tk" to start
client.
If everything goes o.k., welcome to the world of Topsecret_Ftp!
To help you familiarize with program operation you can run both server and client on a single computer ; default values for ip="localhost", user="gui", password = "none", and a "sample.key" have been provided for this purpose.
To get a sub directory listing, select sub directory and hit receive button.
Troubleshooting:
----------------
-If server does not start enter "ps -a" to see if topsnet is currently
running. If there is one running that process must be killed by using e.g..
"kill xxx" before running server. Also it may take a few minutes for the
re-binding process to be ready to accept a server.
-Remember, each user key is modified with each use. If you go to a new location, you have to have the modified key for the next file transfer, Or you have another key set up at the new location with a matching key on the server. If you end up with a checksum fail or file transfer trouble because you used a wrong key, use the correct key two times while waiting about a minute for the timers to reset each time.
