FTP server default cipher when using FTPS
Hello all.
When Apache FTP server suggests a cipher to use for FTPS communications,
what is the default on it suggests?
If I require the AES256 to be used, how can I set that to be the cipher to
use?
Kind Regards

This is somewhat beyond my expertise, but my understanding is that
it's the same algorithm but for different key types (RSA and DSS). So,
whatever chosen will likely depend on what type of key your server
(and possible client) uses.

Thank you.
One more question:
What is the difference between TLS_DHE_DSS_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA and
TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA
If I set to one of these, will it choose the AES256 cipher?
Regards

FtpServer will default use whatever the JRE provides.

You can configure a list of allowed cipher suites, see the
configuration option "enabled-ciphersuites" here:
