Thanks for that information!
If that is the case, Linux support shouldn't be very hard. My worry was that it was going to involve a proprietary protocol on an obscure port on the cRio. There are plenty of FTP clients available that can push to and pull from FTP servers, so that definitely isn't an issue. A simple search through the available Debian packages yielded this find.

The first thing that I am going to do when my team gets their hands on a cRio is to figure out how to compile and download to it and then post my results to CD.
