VSFtpD on Cygwin

VSFtpD on Cygwin

[Joseph Ishak]

Where can I get Jason Tishler's VSFtpD port for cygwin as mentioned here

http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2003-04/msg01844.html

I am attempting to use ProFtpD to do some stuff with 2000/xp and I am
having what appears to be the same problem that precipitated the post
above.

I tried searching through the cygwin installer but came up blank.  I
didn't see an experimental or test release listed on the servers.  I
tried connecting to the mirrors directly but came up blank as well.  Any
suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks,

Joe

Umm...  No where.

What problems are you having with proftpd?  AFAICT, the text vs. binary
issues have been resolved since the above post.

I have been meaning to post my latest vsftpd patch to the list -- thanks
for the motivation.  See attached.

However, I must warn you that Cygwin vsftpd can corrupt data under
certain conditions:

Sorry, but I haven't tried to compile vsftpd since 1.1.3, so I can't
really help without actually trying to compile 2.0.3 myself.

Why don't you use proftpd 1.2.10 instead, since it is part of the
standard Cygwin distribution?

You are welcome.
