I put ft_bbs-0.4.s.tar.gz on freebsd.cdrom.com:/pub/FreeBSD/incoming.
It compiles on FreeBSD, Linux, HP-UX 9 and NeXTStep and replaces
bbs-20.12.94.tar.gz.
FT_BBS V 0.4:
WHATIS:
'ft_bbs' (File-Transfer-BBS) is a program for UNIX to offer files for
downloading (and uploading) by modems (ttys) in an easy and secure manner.
It is split in two parts: a daemon 'bbsd' for logging etc. and clients 'bbs',
which interfaces to user by menu (based on curses-library) allowing following
main operations:
listing and changing directories, reading, down- and uploading files.
(by Z-Modem and Kermit).
SECURITY:
'ft_bbs' works with pseudo-chroot: every user can only access a part of the
filesystem (typically '/users/ftp/pub', which is not accomplished by a
'chroot()'-call,'bbs' run without suid-root but as an unpriviliged user
('guest', e,g,). 'bbs' does no writings besides downloads to a selected
directry.
COPYING:
This program(s) are free (GNU-Copyleft).
