serverUNIX The server is running on a UNIX based operating system. This can include Linux and other variants, as well as operating systems which emulate UNIX style file pathing and directory listings.
serverMSDOS The server is running on an MS-DOS based operating system. The server expects file pathing and naming convtions according to the standard MS-DOS format and returns directory listings similar to the output of the DIR command.
serverWindows The server is running on a Windows based operatring system. The server expects file pathing and naming conventions according to the standard Windows long filename format, and returns directory listings similar to the output of the DIR command. Note that Windows servers may be configured to return file and directory information in a format similar to UNIX systems, in which case the system may be identifed as UNIX even though it is actually running on a Windows platform.
serverVMS The server is running on a DEC VMS based operating system. The server expects file pathing and naming conventions specific to that operating system. Note that VMS servers may be configured to return file and directory information in a format similar to UNIX systems, in which case the system may be identified as UNIX even though it is actually running on a VMS platform.
serverNetware The server is running on a NetWare based operating system. The server expects file pathing and naming conventions similar to the standard Windows long filename format, and returns directory listings that are similar to UNIX systems with the exception of the access and permissions flags for the file.
