Hi John, I had the same idea with you just a few years back that the ftp only servers FTP protocol. But nowadays a FTP server provides same contents over a lot of protocols at the same time: FTP/FTPS/SFTP/HTTP/HTTPS.
Please check the wiki page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_FTP_server_software. There are so many choices but it is difficult to find one that is reliable, secure and at the same time easy to use. Thanks. --David ________________________________ From: John R Pierce <pie...@hogranch.com> To: centos@centos.org Sent: Thursday, June 14, 2012 3:59 PM Subject: Re: [CentOS] any reliable FTP server with HTTPS/FTPS, commercial or not On 06/14/12 3:39 PM, Gelen James wrote: > Just like to know which secure FTP servers are popular in use on Linux, the >FTP server should provides HTTPS, FTPS and SFTP methods. sftp is part of SSH, not FTP. https is HTTP not FTP. ftps (FTP over SSL) is a non-standard mess and should be banned. I use vsftp for a straight FTP server, and apache for a https server, openssh for a SSH server. these are all standard CentOS components. -- john r pierce N 37, W 122 santa cruz ca mid-left coast _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
