Special Forums Windows & DOS: Issues & Discussions mapping FTP site as local drive Post 30718 by LivinFree on Friday 25th of October 2002 04:08:39 PM

Again, don't delude yourself, ProFtpd has it's share of holes as well. Only half-witted morons would place FTP in the middle of a couple of "non-rootable" super-dooper-secure boxes... I'm assuming it's running chroot()'d, but there's still problems with that.

And it is possible to sniff a switched network. It's called ARP cache poisoning, and if done correctly, you'll have no idea it's happening - until it's too late, of course.

And now you have a quick FTP server that's "redundant as hell", but originally it was "barely able to handle FTP"...

I think you're jerkin us around...
