Hi

I am using LPCXpresso board and want to run a FTP client for transferring files in MMC/SD card to PC through Ethernet. For FTP , it needs two ports to be connected to FTP server..
Am using TCP/IP stack which comes with webserver example. Is it possible to open two ports at a time.. I tried but its not working.

Is there any sample program or tutorial for FTP client for microcontrollers which can work without OS?
or any alternative protocols?

Thanks in advance

An FTP client on an embedded system with, say, uIP and no OS is certainly possible, but a fair amount of work. A lot depends on the nature of your micro controller's application in relation to how much of the FTP client-side protocol you need to implement.

As an alternative, have you considered using the much simpler TFTP protocol? I posted a TFTP boot loader project here recently. The client only implements reading a file from the server, but it could easily be extended to support writing files.
