Hello all,
Just tested sftp for the first time. Looks neat, thanks for the work :-)
However, there's still some stuff to be done before ftp can be thrown into
the garbage bin and never taken out again, for example:
- file name globbing with e.g. 'get'
- tab completion with get etc.
- ability to pass parameters to 'ls', e.g. 'ls -t' (I'm not sure if the
protocol supports this)
- [chroot to the homedir after user authentication, server side issue]
- ...
But still -- now there's a working, free client available which is the
most important thing.
