FreeBSD Port: proftpd-1.3.3

[David Ordal]

MM-

Suggestions on the proftpd port:
1) You might remove mod_digest. It doesn't seem to work anymore with proftpd 1.3.3, at least on FBSD 6.4 32bit. You get segfault from the daemon when you try to call any mod_digest commands:

Apr 04 17:34:09 [21674] <command:7>: dispatching CMD command 'XMD5 dordal.ics' to mod_digest.c
.....
Apr 04 17:34:09 [21674] <signal:9>: handling SIGSEGV (signal 11)

I emailed the maintainer a few days ago, but no response. He hasn't updated it since 2006.

2) You might consider putting an option for mod_site_misc into the port; it comes with the standard proftpd distribution and is a very simple module to add. http://www.proftpd.org/docs/contrib/mod_site_misc.html It includes support for SITE UTIME and a few other [somewhat] commonly used FTP commands.

Just $0.02.
