From: Mike Brown To: freebsd-gnats-submit@freebsd.org Cc: Subject: Re: misc/15000: ftp(1) needs to send HTTP/1.1 Host: header Date: Fri, 19 Nov 1999 16:54:32 -0700 (MST) I got a fast response from Luke Mewburn, the FTP guy for NetBSD. Their ftp(1) is 80 patchlevels ahead of FreeBSD's and has many more improvements than just the Host: header. He says: "I would recommend that FreeBSD imports and tracks ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/misc/lukemftp/lukemftp-1.1.tar.gz because that is a `self contained' product with various fixes to stuff like libedit and extra libc functions which FreeBSD may not have yet." You can also look at http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/basesrc/usr.bin/ftp/fetch.c to see how far ahead they are with just ftp/fetch.c.
