I had a professor in college a couple years ago, and all of his red hat boxes got 0wned through a wu-ftp exploit. Now, i'm sure the boxes weren't up to date, but he was quite embrassed about the whole thing. Anyway, about the sftp thing, if I understand it right, it's not ftp at all, just an ftp-like client that uses scp, right? from the users perspective, it's like ftp, but it is really not ftp at all. If I am right (anyone?), then sftp is a bit of a misnomer. And if you're looking for a good sftp client or whatever you want to call it, I have used filezilla from windows with good results. supports regular style ftp, as well as "ftp" over port 22 scp style. dan _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
