c-tcp-file-transfer

Set up:

Clone the repo: ~$ git clone https://github.com/lborg019/c-tcp-file-transfer
Navigate into the folder: ~$ cd c-tcp-file-transfer
Compile the code with Makefile: ~$ make
First, run the server in a terminal window, don't forget to specify the port (e.g. 5555): ~$ ./ftpserver 5555
(The server will automatically run on its local loopback IP: 127.0.0.1 or localhost)
On another terminal window, pane, or tab, run the client: ~$ ./ftpclient localhost 5555

If the client connects successfully, it will prompt you for a message. Here's a list with the possible commands:

• ~$ ls-remote lists files available in the server (remotely)
• ~$ ls-local lists files available in the client (locally)
• ~$ get filename.extension download remote file to client
• ~$ put filename.extension upload local file to server
• ~$ exit exit gracefully

For the sake of the example, client files are located in ./folder-local/
Server files are located in ./folder-remote/. Feel free to change these according to your needs as long as your folders are not root access only.
Should work in any Unix system
