Linux FTP question

Post by Winston Kotza » Thu, 15 Jun 2000 04:00:00



Hello.  I'm writing an FTP client and I would like to include support for
Linux.  My question is... What format does Linux respond to LIST commands
with?  Is it the same as UNIX servers?  Thank you in advance to whomever
answers my question.

I don't see why it wouldn't be.  Pretty much all flavors of Unix come with
an ftpd derived from the original BSD ftpd.  And even if they don't, the
alternative versions are intentionally compatible.  The LIST command is
almost always implemented simply by calling out to the ls(1) command.

Best way to find out?  Get an account on a Linux box somewhere or set up
one of your own, then point your client to it and monitor the raw traffic,
comparing that to other UNIX servers.

Yes, it should be the same.

1. FTP: New Linux FTP site: ftp.kernel.org

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Transmeta Corporation is proud to sponsor a new Linux FTP site:

        ftp.kernel.org

Currently, ftp.kernel.org contains the Linux kernel and a set of
mirror sites; in the future, we hope to make space available for users
to publish packages directly.

We are currently connected via a T1; plans are to upgrade to 10 Mbit/s
in the near future.

This site is accessible via:

        FTP             ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub
        HTTP            http://ftp.kernel.org/pub
        NFS             ftp.kernel.org:/pub
        SMB/CIFS        \\ftp.kernel.org\pub

Enjoy...
