WU-FTPD 2.6.1 Release Notes (5900-2465, September 2012)

A default limit is specified to all the classes for which you have not specified a limit. When
the FTP session logs off, this directive prints the number of files and the number of bytes
transferred.
• You can limit the number of data files that a user, in the given class, can transfer in a session.
You can specify a directive in the /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess file to limit the number of incoming
files, outgoing files, or both.
The syntax for the directive is as follows:
file-limit [raw] in out total count [class]
If you do not specify a class, a default limit is specified to all the classes for which a limit is
not specified.
For more information, type man 4 ftpaccess at the HP-UX prompt.
Field added to the /var/adm/syslog/xferlog file
A new field is added to the /var/adm/syslog/xferlog file to indicate the completion status
of the data transfer. A field value of C indicates complete transfer.
For more information on the new fields in the /var/adm/syslog/xferlog file, see xferlog(5).
