Page for FTP update
Posted: Sat 10 Apr 2021 7:36 am
I think the FTP page requires updating.
I am fast gaining experience with SFTP and there are several issues there of which I think should be in the Wiki but I cannot find the page nor the structure to add them too.
The page itself requires a split in Cumulus 1 and MX setup and SFTP must be added OR the website setup should be on its own and the protocols should get a page of their own (maybe split into C1 and CMX). Thinking about special separate pages for the three protocols might be useful.
The goal should be that the word FTP anywhere in the wiki can be linked to an FTP page describing or dispatching to the protocols pages.
EDIT: later I found the SFTP-page which I think is heavily outdated. The opening line

is wrong. It maybe so in Britain, it definitely is not so elsewhere. FTP may leads to problems maybe. It should be worded differently, something like: 'The future of FTP seems to be driving towards'.Many ISPs now only support Secure FTP due to the open, unsecure nature of standard FTP.
