Hi team,
Recently I've been working with FTP server example and explored the code
for FTPD as well. I have a question related to account flags. In
"apps/examples/ftpd/ftpd_main.c" I see the line:
{ FTPD_ACCOUNTFLAG_SYSTEM, "root", "abc123", NULL },
and message:
(account->flags & FTPD_ACCOUNTFLAG_SYSTEM) ? "Root" : "User",
On the other hand in "apps/netutils/ftpd/ftpd.c" there is next block of
code:
if ((account->flags & FTPD_ACCOUNTFLAG_ADMIN) != 0)
{
/* admin user */
session->home = strdup("/");
session->work = strdup(!home ? "/" : home);
}
else
{
/* normal user */
session->home = strdup(!home ? "/" : home);
session->work = strdup("/");
}
So it seems like FTPD_ACCOUNTFLAG_SYSTEM is ignored by FTPD. My question is
what is the purpose of FTPD_ACCOUNTFLAG_SYSTEM and how is it different from
FTPD_ACCOUNTFLAG_ADMIN?
Best regards,
Petro
