Someone asked whether lukemftpd offered functionality other(s) don't ? What about proxy ? I've never been sure which ftpd to run on my gateway (with IPFW, with no NAT) to provide proxy, so internal hosts could cd /usr/ports; make fetch I've tried various ftpd's but never got the right combination of ftpd & client host environment variables (+ipfw), + some feeling of safety, as not wanting (most the time) to allow incoming ftp from internet to my gate (or beyond !), & some ftpd descriptions don't sound secure. Any reccomendations please of working combinations of ftpd's & env. vars & ipfw rules from people succesfully running make fetch on internal client hosts via proxy ftpd's on gateway, without NAT ? (Apache on gate works as http proxy already with IPFW & with no NAT). Julian -- Julian Stacey.
