FTP server was added part of X2 BIOS 4978

[4978]
- Added FTP server, IP: 192.168.10.123, Mask: 255.255.0.0, login/password: x3/x3
- FTP server starts up if you keep the 'A' button pressed on bootup, otherwise the dashes are run

and later on removed in X2 BIOS 4979

[4979]
- Removed embedded FTP (was simply a proof of concept anyway)

Apparently an FTP sever took up a valuable chunk of space in the BIOS IIRC. Since the X2CL BIOS series went up to 512KB I don't know if that space would be available or if it was taken by all the new features added.

If you want FTP at the BIOS level with something that exists today, upgrade your chip to an X3 and use the X3 BIOS. Looking at the change log the X3 BIOS has an FTP server (and HTTP?) built in.
