The Teradata Public FTP option copies the selected files to a Teradata public server for your access. After you click Download, the files are transferred and a log then displays the FTP location and additional instructions for accessing the files.
Some pop-up blockers can interfere with viewing the FTP log window that contains important information about your downloads. Turn off any pop-up blockers or enable pop-ups for the ESD web site before proceeding. See the documentation for your browser or third-party pop-up blocker for instructions about how to do this.
