A while ago, Poul-Henning implemented a read-only option in ftpd that makes the server refuse any command that would write, remove or modify a file or directory. Currently, the server will send a 202 reply with the reason "Command ignored. Server is in readonly mode.", but I think that a "550 Permission denied" would be much more appropriate. Does anybody object to this change? DES -- Dag-Erling Smorgrav - des@ofug.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
