Short: rc-ftpd - the best ftpd for amiga ;-)
Author: Robin Cloutman <rycochet2.yahoo.com>
Type: comm/tcp
This is currently a work in progress, you run it at your own risk.
IMPORTANT: This can use a lot of stack, I know MUI programs say use a higher
value, but I'm reiterating that. If you don't have at least 32k stack for
the program it probably will crash at some point!
Currently known ftp commands (though a few are unsupported/unneeded) -
USER PASS (ACCT) (REIN) QUIT
PORT PASV TYPE (STRU) (MODE)
RETR STOR APPE ALLO REST
RNFR RNTO ABOR DELE CWD
LIST NLST (SITE) (STAT) HELP
NOOP CDUP MDTM MKD PWD
RMD SYST XCUP XCWD XMKD
XPWD XRMD
Commands I have the info for which will appear when I get net access again -
FEAT MLST MLSD OPTS AUTH
ADAT PROT PBSZ CCC MIC
CONF ENC
Some of these, especially the secutiry extensions, will rely on the number
of people registering, If enough people don't register then don't expect me
to do more than bugfix or add minor features, those that require a large
amount of coding need me to *want* to do them, and I won't want to do them
without being adiquately rewarded... Also, the security extensions will only
work on the registered version anyway ;-P
Commands I need more info on so I can add them -
CLNT
I've got a couple more commands I've got the info for adding, including
some proposed ones that aren't even in the RFC's yet. If I ever get a
printer I'll print out the relevent ones and do a little more about them...
Since version 2.x rc-ftpd has been shareware, the demo restrictions are -
1. Limit of only 3 users online at any one time.
2. CPS is capped at 3k (you can set it lower however.
3. The AREXX port is disabled.
*. The shareware restrictions will make any future versions act like the
current shareware restrictions, so if I add new features (some commands)
then they will (probably) be for registered only. This will include -
Notify, Command en/dis-able, Customisable replies, Auto type (README),
etc...
Latest Changes
--------------
If you tick "Messages:" in the General page then it will look for a file
called ".message" (case unimportant) and send that, nothing will be
sent if not found.
The keyfile can be kept in any of 3 locations now - PROGDIR: S: and
$KEYFILES, it will look in that order.
If anyone sends their password starting with a "-" character (minus) then
it will strip that and will not send any multi-line responses. This is
partly for older clients, but also means people can cut down the bandwidth
if using something like DopusFTP which will never show the replies anyway.
The prefs file has moved to ENVARC/ENV, if you are upgrading from an
earlier version then move it from the old PROGDIR:
Auto-comment for registered users.
