FTP User-Accessible Directories

The three folders listed below are the only areas that are used when uploading or downloading files on any Cyberware servers. A brief description of each folder is provided:

• inbox:
  This directory contains any files that a user might be exchanging with Cyberware. The files in this directory are read protected, so a user cannot see any of the information in the files located in this directory. Anyone can, however, put files into this directory. Any file in this directory is not in the public domain, and is considered to be the property of Cyberware, or of the company/individual who originally uploaded the file to our site.
• outbox:
  The outbox is a place where Cyberware will place any files that are to be distributed to specific clients. The files in this directory are not in the public domain, but are considered to be the property of Cyberware or of the intended receiver.
• pub:
  This area contains any files that are free to download and are considered to be in the public domain (unless otherwise noted).
