• Anonymous ftp

    I've had to disable anonymous ftp on port 60721 due to some sickos trying to crash the server.

    I am going to reopen it though, most likely on some port way up there. I'll let
    you know where shortly.

    Hello Janis!

    Over the last two days or so I have had the same file in two areas
    FBF2HTM2.ZIP

    Areas :

    WINFREE
    PDNBASIC

    and on top of that a tic file with a manual request to delete it.

    What is going on?

    My bad, the archive was released into both areas (different versions) so I re-hatched the new one in the original area with replace to update to the current version. FBF2HTM.ZIP is obsolete, FBF2HTM2 is good. Not something I plan on making a habit of, sorry.

    Hi Benny,

    I've had to disable anonymous ftp on port 60721 due to some sickos
    trying to crash the server.

    some day you have to drop bbbs ? :=)

    Nope, not in my plans...

    I am going to reopen it though, most likely on some port way up there.

    I use port 21 for another ftp program, but that one is not public.

    do you know what you are doing ?

    Do you know what I'm doing? <bg>

    Take care,
    Janis

    OK, thanks for the info now to work out why the file was not deleted assuming you had that param in the .tic file.
