2 options.

1 you can setup the HP3K to use anonymous FTP

Or

2 set the user and acct passwords as variables on the UNIX server and
add this to the FTP script.

I have not had a chance to test any of this, but I thought I would ask
the question first.  I'm sure someone else has had to deal with this.
We daily have a sun unix server ftp files to the hp.  There is no
password setup on the group.accounts that ftp logs in too (we are
talking more than one client [i.e.group.account] here).  As part of our
sarbains/oxley fun and games, we have to secure the hp.  When we do
implement security on the hp, either all mpe security and/or with
security/3000, I am assuming that ftp (into the hp) will get asked the
password after the group.account is entered, if one has been
implemented, correct?  I guess what I am getting at, is can ftp into the
hp be allowed to not need to enter a password, even though a user
logging into the hp with vt-mgr or serial would need to.
