[TUHS] Mills' initial implementation of FTP - best citation?

Those are NCP FTP, a slightly different protocol, and implementation, from TCP
FTP. (The code from the NCP one was sometimes recycled into the TCP one; see
e.g.:

  https://github.com/PDP-10/its-vault/blob/master/files/sysnet/ftpu.161

which has both in one program.)

These RFC's you listed are obviously pre-TCP; the first TCP RFC is
RFC-675. (The first RFC that even mentions TCP seems to be RFC-661.)  RFC's
are all NCP-related until around #700 or so, when the mix starts to change.


Maybe the "needing clarification" refers to these two different FTP's? Without
an explicit classifier, does that text refer to NCP FTP or TCP FTP?
