Fetch

Fetch is a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) program. It is originally from Dartmouth College and is now produced by Fetch Softworks.

Fetch Softworks has detailed on-line support information for Fetch on its Web site. The company does not offer technical support for the educational version; if you need further assistance with it, please contact us for help.

Fetch educational license

The license is free to RIT as an educational institution, and to members of the RIT community. While the license is limited, it does allow:

"Use by a student or employee of a public or accredited private school, college, university or academy; use by a student or parent engaged in home-schooling; use by volunteers or employees of a tax-exempt charity, to further the work of that charity."

You do not have the right to redistribute the serial number publicly in any fashion. The educationally-licensed product cannot be used by those who are not members of the RIT community.

Failure to honor these simple terms can result in service disruption to everyone using Fetch at RIT.

Fetch educational serial number

RIT has both a Fetch 4 educational serial number and Fetch 5 educational serial number (an RIT computer account login is required to access the serial number).
