From 3f777d0edfa0ea8413d2c83eacbbda135970cb3c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joel Sherrill Date: Fri, 12 Jan 2001 13:51:56 +0000 Subject: 2001-01-12 Sergei Organov * 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 --- cpukit/libnetworking/ChangeLog | 34 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 34 insertions(+) (limited to 'cpukit/libnetworking') diff --git a/cpukit/libnetworking/ChangeLog b/cpukit/libnetworking/ChangeLog index 85f24f3503..b032dcf243 100644 --- a/cpukit/libnetworking/ChangeLog +++ b/cpukit/libnetworking/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,37 @@ +2001-01-12 Sergei Organov + + * 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.
