FTP + bootable CD

Just a simple little quick question I can't work out.

When using FTP (Solaris 7 & sun OS4.x) is there a way to FTP across a directory?



Also anyone know of any up-to-date doc's on how to create a bootable CD? Perfer it to explain how this can be made across 3 CD's worth, ie 1st CD is boot CD and the other 2 CD's would have the rest o the stuff as I know it all wont fit on one CD. I can only find some jumpstart bootable CD manual from SUN.


Thank for the help poeple Smilie

--------------------------------------------------

Sorry should have made things a little more clear.

For the bootable CD I want to create one. I want to backup a full system setup the way I have it now and I want to back it up to a CD, well it'll be over several CD's.

FTP question. Well out sys admin finally came clean and told us teh backups aren't working fine. So for a temp solution I'm throwing one of my test computers onto the network and leting users put a copy of there work on that computer.
Will the users have to tar up their stuff or is there a way to FTP a directory? (The O/S's used are above) I don't want to use 3rd party programs.

NAME
ftpusers - list of users that may not log in via the FTP daemon DESCRIPTION
The text file ftpusers contains a list of users that may not log in using the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server daemon. This file is used not merely for system administration purposes but for improving security within a TCP/IP networked environment. It will typically contain a list of the users that either have no business using ftp or have too many privileges to be allowed to log in through the FTP server daemon. Such users usually include root, daemon, bin, uucp, and news. If your FTP server daemon doesn't use ftpusers then it is suggested that you read its documentation to find out how to block access for certain users. Washington University FTP server Daemon (wuftpd) and Professional FTP Daemon (proftpd) are known to make use of ftpusers. Format The format of ftpusers is very simple. There is one account name (or username) per line. Lines starting with a # are ignored. FILES
/etc/ftpusers SEE ALSO
passwd(5), proftpd(8), wuftpd(8) COLOPHON
