(1) Creating a definition file

Create a definition file with the following path name:

JP1/FTP-installation-directory\HOSTINFO.INI

(2) Contents of the definition file

Specify information in the format of a Windows initialization file (.ini), as shown below:

The following table lists and describes the sections, keys, and values that can be specified.

Table 3-12 Contents of the definition file (HOSTINFO.INI)

Section Key Value Description

[CSHOST] CSHost YES|NO
<<NO>> At the FTP client, specifies whether the ftstran command's /H specification and the fts_ftp_open() function's hostname specification are to be effective:

YES: Set the FTP client's source address to the IP address of the host that is specified in /H in the ftstran command or in hostname in the fts_ftp_open() function.
If you specify YES but /H is omitted in the ftstran command, the physical host name is assumed. Also, if you specify YES but NULL is specified in hostname in the fts_ftp_open() function, the physical host name is assumed.

NO: Set the FTP client's source address to the value that is assigned automatically by the OS.

[RSPMSG] Reverse YES|NO|(omitted)
<<omitted>> Specifies the output format for the FTP server's host name in a response message that is sent from the FTP server:

YES: Output the host name obtained by converting the connected IP address.

NO: Output the connected IP address.

Omitted: Output the physical host name.

[JP1EVENT] HostName host-name|IP-address | (omitted)
<<omitted>> Specifies the destination for output of JP1 events:

host-name|IP-address: Specifies the destination for JP1 events that report start and stop of services (client, server, log, or agent).
The destination (logical or physical address) of a JP1 event that is generated during termination of a transmission is set to the host that executed the transmission.

Omitted: Send all JP1 events to the physical host.

AgentIsSame YES|NO
<<YES>> Specifies whether to set the destination of the JP1 events reporting the start and stop of the agent service to the host specified in HostName.

YES: Set the destination of JP1 events to the host specified in HostName.

NO: Set the destination of JP1 events to the physical host.

Example

This example enables the /H specification in the ftstran command and the hostname specification in fts_ftp_open().

This example sets the host name obtained by converting the connected IP address as the FTP server's host name in the FTP server's response message.

This example sets the destination of JP1 events reporting start and stop of services (client, server, log, or agent) to Host1 (logical host name = Host1).

Section	Key	Value	Description
[CSHOST]	CSHost	YES\|NO <<NO>>	At the FTP client, specifies whether the ftstran command's /H specification and the fts_ftp_open() function's hostname specification are to be effective: YES: Set the FTP client's source address to the IP address of the host that is specified in /H in the ftstran command or in hostname in the fts_ftp_open() function. If you specify YES but /H is omitted in the ftstran command, the physical host name is assumed. Also, if you specify YES but NULL is specified in hostname in the fts_ftp_open() function, the physical host name is assumed. NO: Set the FTP client's source address to the value that is assigned automatically by the OS.
[RSPMSG]	Reverse	YES\|NO\|(omitted) <<omitted>>	Specifies the output format for the FTP server's host name in a response message that is sent from the FTP server: YES: Output the host name obtained by converting the connected IP address. NO: Output the connected IP address. Omitted: Output the physical host name.
[JP1EVENT]	HostName	host-name\|IP-address \| (omitted) <<omitted>>	Specifies the destination for output of JP1 events: host-name\|IP-address: Specifies the destination for JP1 events that report start and stop of services (client, server, log, or agent). The destination (logical or physical address) of a JP1 event that is generated during termination of a transmission is set to the host that executed the transmission. Omitted: Send all JP1 events to the physical host.
AgentIsSame	YES\|NO <<YES>>	Specifies whether to set the destination of the JP1 events reporting the start and stop of the agent service to the host specified in HostName. YES: Set the destination of JP1 events to the host specified in HostName. NO: Set the destination of JP1 events to the physical host.

(3) Note

If there is no definition file, these functions are disabled, and the physical host name is assumed in all cases.
