RE: The size of the uploaded file
Why not just set up a FTP site? I assume the people who want to upload those large files will be familiar with FTP. -Original Message- From: Octavian Rasnita [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, June 02, 2002 11:55 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: The size of the uploaded file Hi all, I've seen for more times that it is not recommended to upload big files with a web form. I know that if the connection brokes down, the file will be probably lost, but are there any other problems? I would like to make a form for uploading big files on my server. Not for the public, but I want to be able to upload files that have 30 MB or even more. Do I create special problems for the server? Thanks.

David, Since there are a lot of newbies here, can you please enumerate on the pains and differences between both FTPs and what SCP is? -Original Message- From: David T-G [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, June 03, 2002 9:17 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Camilo Gonzalez Subject: Re: The size of the uploaded file Camilo, et al -- and then Camilo Gonzalez said... % % Why not just set up a FTP site?

Camilo, et al -- ...and then Camilo Gonzalez said... % % David, % % Since there are a lot of newbies here, can you please enumerate on the pains % and differences between both FTPs and what SCP is? Oh, dear. Now I've stepped in it :-) In brief, and without attempting to cover *all* of the details, some of the biggest problems with ftp are that the passwords are sent in clear text and that you have to either trust an account on your system or build a sufficiently secure jail so that only what you want to go out goes read and only where you want incoming to land gets written. It can be very challenging and has been hacked in many ways before. scp (secure copy) is part of the ssh (secure shell) suite, which provides secure (== encrypted) communication as part of its design, thus taking care of the cleartext problem, and which is smarter about security issues also by design (which helps take care of the jail thing). Yes, I know there are anon ftp daemons (wu-ftpd, proftpd, ncftpd, and who knows how many others) that promise security with convenience, but many of them have been hacked time and time again. If you want to have an ftp server for download, I recommend looking at http://cr.yp.to/publicfile.html and reading up on some of Dan's other references. Alas, I do not know if publicfile accepts files; I kind of doubt it.
