Inferno's FTPFS(4) (366 words) |
 | Ftpfs connects to ftphost using the Internet's File Transfer Protocol, and makes the remote files visible at mountpoint (default: /n/ftp) in the current name space, for access by ordinary Inferno file operations. |
| By default, ftpfs uses a `passive' connection for file transfer: the remote system gives the local system a new address to call to fetch the data. |
| Ftpfs does not implement `rename', forcing mv(1) to rename by copying. |
| GNU Midnight Commander - Patches: patch #3727, ftpfs 'nowhere to fallback to'... [Savannah] (474 words) |
| When you are browsing some ftp using MC's ftpfs in PASSIVE mode and then stay inactive for some time, after an attempt to reload directory's contents or to change cuurent dir you end up with "Nowhere to fallback to" message. |
| Ftpfs tries to react to this situation (by checking for EPIPE after 'write's) and to autoatically reconnect. |
| Ftpfs considers '421 Timeout' message as an indication of the unsuccessful 'PASV' command and falls back to ACTIVE mode. |
