+ * rtems_servers/ftpd.c, rtems_servers/ftpd.h: Major enhancements
+ as listed below:
+ - use pool of pre-created threads to handle sessions instead of
+ creating/deleting threads on the fly
+ - LIST output is now similar to what "/bin/ls -al" would output,
+ thus FTP clients such Netscape are happy with it.
+ - LIST NAME now works (both for files and directories)
+ - added support for NLST, CDUP, and MDTM FTP commands to make
+ more FTP clients happy
+ - keep track of CWD for every session separately
+ - ability to specify root directory name for FTPD in configuration
+ table. FTPD will then create illusion for FTP clients that this
+ is actually root directory.
+ - ignore options sent in commands, thus LIST -al FILE works and
+ doesn't try to list "-al" directory.
+ - buffers are allocated on stack instead of heap where possible to
+ eliminate malloc/free calls (avoid possible heap fragmentation
+ troubles).
+ - drop using of task notepad to pass parameters - use function
+ arguments instead
+ - use snprintf() instead of sprintf() as the latter is unsafe
+ - use of PF_INET in socket() instead of AF_INET
+
+ Here are ftp clients I've tried new FTPD with (all of them
+ running on Debian GNU/Linux 2.2):
+
+ Lftp 2.1.10
+ NcFTP 2.4.3
+ Netscape 4.75
+ ftp
+ mc 4.5.49
