[FTPSERVER] Midnight Commander (Linux) behaviour
Hello,
Midnight Commander (mc) is text-based file manager used mainly on Linux/unix
and is capable to work with FTPs. After uploading file it issues a command
SITE CHMOD xxxxx which is not supported by Apache FtpServer. Mc reaction is
displaying red error dialog. This happens after each upload even during
multiple files uploading. It is quite uncomfortable pressing Ok button each
time (especially during multiupload).
My opinion is - if absence of SITE CHMOD command has such a consequence it
would be better to support the command to be there but to do nothing (and
send a note about it to an user). What do you mean?
My solution is attached.
Regards,
Jiří Kuhn

Hello,
I should say: Mea culpa!
The ftp copy dialog of midnight commandar has a "preserve attributes" option
which is by default on. Turning it off solves my trouble. Who knows how long
it is there... Sorry to blame FTPSERVER.

Hello,
We can of course implement site chmod command, but I think this is a mc
issue, you cannot expect every ftpserver out there to implement site chmod.
I bet they have a issue tracker too, you could open a ticket there about
this behaviour and see if they are willing to fic it.
cheers

Hello Jiří,
Thanks for your suggestion and patch.
But it would be better to create a JIRA issue and attach your patch to it.
Don't forget the tick the checkbox about licensing.
