Hello,
the Code to allow port forwarding of ftp connections (as stated in the
CHANGES and the manpage) did not make it into the 2.4.0 source code
release!
CHANGES:
* Implemented FTP forwarding (secure tunnels are dynamically
created for data connections and port numbers are spoofed in
the command channel).
manpage:
-L [protocol/]port:host:hostport
[...] The pro<AD>
tocols implemented are tcp (default, no special
processing) and ftp (temporary forwardings are cre<AD>
ated for ftp data channels, effectively securing
the whole ftp session).
source code:
if (strcasecmp(c->fwd->protocol, "tcp") != 0)
{
if (strcasecmp(c->fwd->protocol, "http") == 0)
{
ssh_warning("forwarding protocol \"http\" defaults to \"tcp\"");
}
[ ... 25 empty lines deleted ... ]
else
{
ssh_warning("forwarding protocol \"%s\" defaults to \"tcp\"",
c->fwd->protocol);
}
}
It's a pitty. I'd really like to see a working implementation of ftp
port forwarding in the source.
Greetings
Markus
