                     19: The \fIlibftam\fR library contains a set of routines which implement the File
                     20: Transfer, Access and Management (FTAM) protocol.
                     21: This manual page describes only high\-level information only;
                     22: consult the \fIUser's Manual\fR for the full details on the entire
                     23: FTAM interface.
                     24: .PP
                     25: Supported are:
                     26: the no-recovery FTAM-QoS;
                     27: the transfer, access, management, and transfer and management service classes;
                     28: the kernel, read, write, access, limited file management, enhanced file
                     29: management, grouping, and fadu-locking functional units;
                     30: and,
                     31: the kernel, storage, security, and private attributes groups.
                     32: Both initiators and responders are supported.

                     49: All routines return the manifest constant \fBNOTOK\fR (\-1) on error.
                     50: In addition,
                     51: those routines which take a pointer to a \fBFTAMindication\fR structure
                     52: fill\-in the structure as appropriate.

                     55: .SH BUGS
                     56: Do not confuse ftam\-descriptors with file\-descriptors.
                     57: Unlike file\-descriptors which are implemented by the kernel,
                     58: ftam\-descriptors do not work across \fIfork\fRs and \fIexec\fRs.
                     59: .PP
                     60: The grouping functional unit is always required,
                     61: even if the file access classes is selected.
                     62: .PP
                     63: Although the security group is implemented,
                     64: access\-control attributes may be read but not changed.
                     65: .PP
                     66: The number of charging, diagnostic, and content types entries
                     67: permitted on a given service primitive is limited to a compile-time constant.
                     68: .PP
                     69: Contents types are identified solely by document type name;
                     70: identification by abstract syntax and/or constrait set name is not supported.
