Huh? You have "done programming in c for a long time" and you are still clueless? Is this a class project?

Anyway, assuming you are correct in your posting, that you need to implement a project that includes an FTP server and client, then there is only one thing to say, "DDN Protocol Handbook, Volume 2", Section 8.1.3 - File Transfer Protocol (FTP). That contains the full FTP protocol definition, and is the authority of record.

FYI, this series of books are published by the United States Department of Defense, Defense Communications Agency. The actual ID of Volume Two is "NIC 50005". I think you can get it from Amazon.com.

One final comment. I have developed in C from scratch, using the specifications in this book, a full client and server implementation of FTP and Telnet for real-time systems. I understand this technology as well as probably anyone. Have fun! But, make sure that you are fully capable of programming finite-state machines, because that will be necessary if you are to complete this project successfully.
