Anyone tried this? crdom.com??? ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 26 Mar 1998 22:37:14 +0900 (JST) From: ikuo@ellipse.org To: nanog@merit.edu Subject: Ellipse - a new anonymous ftp server implementation Hi all, We are very grad to announce an alpha release of the `Ellipse' which is a new anonymous ftp server implementation. A few Ellipse processes (one is the master and others are pre-forked processes) can handle a lot of ftp clients at a same time. So, it requires less memory or process resources to serve a large number of ftp sessions. Ellipse is designed to serve ANONYMOUS ftp services only. So it is VERY SECURE. For example, it calls chroot system call and leaves from any privilege mode before accepting connections. IPv6 extensions, such as LPRT, LPSV are also supported. We tested IPv6 extensions with INRIA and Hydrangea. For more details, see http://www.ellipse.org/ or README in a distribution. The newest distribution can be found in: ftp://ftp.ellipse.org/pub/net/ellipse Best regards, Ikuo Nakagawa To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
