 +==== How to copy files from X to Y ?====
 +See instructions above. Just substitute the memory stick and SD cart with what you try do do. - Like 'internal flash memory to usb stick'.

 You need to have a disk image mounted to be able to save something to it. See {{ :book:c64u-user-guide-1st-edition.pdf |page 20 of the User Guide}} about how to use and mount a disk image.  You need to have a disk image mounted to be able to save something to it.

 +==== Can I put a password on the FTP/Telnet/Web remote access?  ====
 +Yes, you can. 
 +
 +Simply go in 'The Menu' to //Network Services// and //TimeZone// and for the //Network Password// option, provide a password and save it to flash.
 +
 +From this point forward, the password provided will be required to authenticate via Telnet, FTP and Web Remote Control.
 +
 +Note that these services are not supposed to be accessible from the internet. So it is to protect access from other users in your local network. 
 +
 +==== Can I FTP/Telnet/Web remote access to my C64U from the internet?  ====
 +No, not by default. This is intended to be used on your local network only. 
 +
 +But obviously if you really wish to do that you could expose it externally with the right software-hardware. If you have your own intern router that is likely it has that option. If it is a device provided by a large ISP probably not.
 +
 +A secure way to access your C64U externally is to setup a private VPN to your home netwerk. Then you just VPN to your home network and then you are on you local network while being remote.

 A DNP file is a disk image of a Commodore 64 hard‑disk (CMD) partition. It isn’t a regular file you can open with a normal program, and it can’t be “mounted” like a USB stick. A DNP file is a disk image of a Commodore 64 hard‑disk (CMD) partition.

 On the Ultimate, such a cartridge can of course be emulated by loading the appropriate .CRT file so you don't have to have the physical cartridge handy, and you can save to virtual .D64 images instead of real floppies, but the underlying concept is the same. On the Ultimate, such a cartridge can of course be emulated by loading the appropriate .CRT file so you don't have to have the physical cartridge handy, and you can save to virtual .D64 images instead of real floppies, but the underlying concept is the same.
