 Note: The File Server doesn't yet support or recognize a "ping" request.
 This class simply provides a dummy request that we can send to the File Server, to elicit a reply.
 We expect the File Server to reject this request with a reply (class IFSReturnCodeRep) indicating "request not supported".
 That's fine, because when we receive the reply, we've verified that the connection is still alive.
