Ideally, what I would like to do is use the GoAhead web server to provide a
page that the user could connect to with his web browser. That page would
have a link to get the latest firmware from our web site (so he could
download it to his PC), then another button that would let him transfer that
file to our unit using FTPD.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

<pre wrap="">You have also a menu item posibility to 'login as' only if a ftp session is open

With this a cut & paste ftp session is opened without additional client software.
I use this to let up/download.
I don't know if rtems FTPD lets it but it seems that it hasn't reason.

Thanks, Charles, for the syntax for a link that includes a username. Also to Fernando for the cut-and-paste tip using Windows Explorer. I think we are on the right track, but I have a few remaining problems:
#1: While I can log on to the ftp server for our company's web page with the <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="ftp://username@192.168.0.24">ftp://username@192.168.0.24</a> syntax, I can't seem to do the same to our embedded system running RTEMS. I _can_ log on to it with a command-line ftp client using any username (or a blank user name). I don't know what is different about the embedded FTP server that keeps it from working.
#2: I can use Internet Explorer to paste files (causing an FTP upload), but I can't figure out how to copy files to the clipboard using it. I have to copy them to the clipboard using Windows Explorer before using IE to paste them. It seems like I should be able to follow one of those FTP links, right-click on a file and select copy, then navigate to a different directory and paste it. Am I missing something obvious?

If you mean that you want to copy a file FROM the FTP server to
somewhere local using IE, I believe that with some older versions of IE
you need to use the Edit->Copy to Folder... menu selection rather
than drag and drop. Perhaps this is the case for you.<br>
