Hi, I am the systems administrator for my company and I have been trying to
find a way to shut down ftp access to our server. This would entail
finding an alternative file transfer protocol, such as some sort of GUI-scp
or a combination of netatalk and samba(?) or something else.
What I really want to know is if there are any place (or anyone) that will
tell me the vulnerabilities of using netatalk. I am convinced that it is
an improvement over ftp, but I am not convinced that I should implement
it. Furthermore, we just moved our server and though I have not compiled
pam_smb or anything, the chooser menu says that the passwords are encripted
(whereas before it use to be clear-text). I think this is due to the new
kernel, but can anyone enlighten me on this?
Thanks in advance.
