Be aware that ftpd is likely to be replaced in the near future, as there's a strong desire to converge on the LukeM FTP tools. --BOKacYhQ+x31HxR3 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline On Mon, Jul 02, 2001 at 11:55:14PM -0400, Mike Wiacek wrote: I

Hi all. I'm hoping this is a good place to post, if not, please correct me :). We're doing an entire system based on a MySQL database, that's currently able to handle SMTP/POP3 and the dialup system. The next stage I need to get going however is the web/FTPd system. I've seen the PAM modules

So fstat(1) doesn't show you that the file is opened to ftpd? No, it does indeed show that. You really have to lock the files to help you with this problem? It seems a more natural solution to me than grepping for ftpd in fstat's output regarding the file. Also, I think that approach

This patch adds a ``-x'' flag to ftpd, which instructs ftpd to obtain an exclusive lock on files it commits to disk as a result of a store operation. This way it becomes easy to tell whether a download has finished, in case the file needs to be copied someplace else (as in my case). I used open
