Runs in chroot'ed apachehrmm...methinks you are new to all of this,
right? Maybe you should contact your local sysadmin and ask him the explain
how things work between client, server, and where things are run.

If you mean that a client executable served back from a webserver, thats
easy: it'd be a non-executable object under any document root.


Thanks for your help


If you have a browser, you have an FTP client.

However, FTP over HTTP is the major suck.




the browser itself is only for anonymous ftp :-( I actually wanted FTP over HTTP

Thanks

I use mozilla-firefox with the fireftp extension. Works
fine, fast. Authenticated logins. I know, I u/l stuff to
my account on my isp. No need to get your sysadmin all
in a dither. ;)

not that I know of, but it would take about 20 minutes to write in PHP[1].


[1] or the language of your choice.

Browser can do authenticated FTP. Please consult your documentation, this is
not an OpenBSD problem.

Browsers make excellent ftp clients for users! Authenticated or not, ..
man ftpchroot (base system).

what about http://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ?

altogether a bad idea though...however no more insecure that
using plain-old-FTP in the first place.  Might or might not
work as web browsers don't tend to know anything about passive
mode FTP and instead use active mode for everything.

later.
