I have made a C program that lock in exclusive mode the file. I thought that If I am able to lock the file then the file is not open by another process. But It doesn't work, the program is able to lock the file although the file is downloading.
The real problem appear to be that, nowhere in the Linux system reside information about the files than the vsftpd daemon is working with ...
My system receive files from a lot of external different systems, so I can't request to all this systems ( some of them, another companies ) a second file to confirm that the first one is completed.
Why dont you check the size of the downloaded file's size in an interval of say 30 secs, if they are same, it is inferred the FTP is completed.
