ftpiiu - A ftp server plugin for the Wii U based on ftpd

Installation

([ENVIRONMENT] is a placeholder for the actual environment name.)

Copy the file ftpiiu.wps into sd:/wiiu/environments/[ENVIRONMENT]/plugins.
Requires the WiiUPluginLoaderBackend in sd:/wiiu/environments/[ENVIRONMENT]/modules.

Usage information and settings

By default, the FTPiiU server is running as long the plugin loaded (file is in the plugin directory of your environment).
Access to the system files is disabled by default, you can enable it in the config menu.
To connect to the server you can use empty credentials
The SD card can be accessed via /fs/vol/external01/

Via the plugin config menu (press L, DPAD Down and Minus on the gamepad) you can configure the plugin. The available options are the following:

Settings:
- Enable FTPiiU:
  - Starts/Stops the ftp server which is running in the background. Changes take effect when so close the config menu. (Default is true).
- Allow access to system files:
  - Allows you to access all system files. If this option is disabled, you can only access /fs/vol/content, /fs/vol/save and /fs/vol/external01 (SD card). Changes take effect when so close the config menu, but the server may restart. (Default is false).
Additionally, the config menu will display the IP of your console and the port the server is running at.

See the ftpd repository for a list of all supported commands.

Logging

Logs will only appear in the system log (OSReport).
