WU-FTPD 2.6.1 release notes (July 2010)

Example 1-5 The ul-dl-rate Clause
An example for the ul-dl-rate clause is as follows:
ul-dl-rate 2
For every 1 byte of data that is uploaded, the ftp server allows 2 bytes of data to
be downloaded.
• The nice Clause
The nice clause allows you to modify the nice value of the FTP server if the
remote user is a member of the named class. If you do not specify the class, use
nice-delta as the default adjustment to the nice value of the FTP server process.
The default nice value adjustment is used to adjust the nice value of the server
process. You can use the adjustment only for users who do not belong to any class
for which a class-specific nice directive exists in the /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess
file.
The syntax for the nice clause is as follows:
nice <nice-delta> [ class ]
NOTE: You can specify only negative values for nice-delta. Positive values
or 0 are ignored.
• The defumask Clause
The defumask clause allows you to set umask for a file created by the FTP daemon
if the remote user is a member of the named class. You can enter multiple
defumask entries in the /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess file. If you do not specify a
class for a defumask entry, use umask as the default for classes that do not have
a defumask entry.
The syntax for the defumask clause is as follows:
defumask umask [ class ]
Example 1-6 The defumask Clause
The following are some examples for the defumask clause:
defumask 0177
defumask 0133 ClassA
This clause creates files with the permission -rw-r--r-- for a user of ClassA.
For other users, files are created with the permission -rw-------.
• Limitations on the Number of Lines of Output
This feature allows you to limit the number of lines of output that can be sent to
the remote client. By default, the limit is set to 20.
