For my little (maybe not too little) csci project I am going to implement a FTP server/client, possibly (maybe) in Java (might do server in C). I kind of need some detailed info on the FTP protocol, and having looked at some of the rfc's briefly, I think the information *might* be better detailed elsewhere...

Helpful would be a complete list of the all the commands and responses and how they probably are implemented in both the dos/windows/unix world.

I'd kind of *like* to do this without ripping off someone else's code too badly :), so I'd prefer not to study someone else's ftp code in detail and then do mine although some basic outline would probably be good.

Any suggestions?
