• timeouts:
This feature is used to control the various timeouts used within the daemon. The following
daemon timeout values are now available:
1. accept - The time period the daemon waits for an incoming (PASV) data connection. The
default value is 120 seconds.
2. connect - The time period the daemon waits before attempting to establish an outgoing
(PORT) data connection. The default value is 120 seconds. This affects the actual
connection attempt. The daemon makes several attempts, sleeping a while between each,
before completely giving up. During this 120 minutes time frame, the daemon keeps on
trying to establish a connection. If the daemon fails to establish a connection during this
period, it gives up.
3. data - The time period the daemon will wait for some activity on the data connection.
The default value is 1200 seconds.
4. idle - The time period the daemon will wait for the next command. The default value is
900 seconds.
5. RFC931 - The maximum time the daemon allows for the entire RFC931 (AUTH/ident)
conversation. The default value is 10 seconds.
6. maxidle - The SITE IDLE command allows the remote client to establish a higher value for
the idle timeout. With a new option in ftpaccess (MaxIdle) this can be overridden. The
default value is 1200 seconds.
The general syntax for timeout is:
timeout accept <seconds>
timeout connect <seconds>
timeout data <seconds>
timeout idle <seconds>
timeout maxidle <seconds>
timeout RFC931 <seconds>
Example 1
timeout idle 200
Displays the following message "Current IDLE time limit is 200 seconds; max 7200"
timeout maxidle 6200
Displays the following message "Current IDLE time limit is 200 seconds; max 6200"
timeout RFC931 0
Disables RFC931 based authentication since 0 has been specified.
• Enhanced DNS extensions:
This feature is used for refusing (or overriding) an FTP session when a reverse DNS lookup
fails.
The general syntax for this is:
dns refuse_mismatch <filename> [ override ]
dns refuse_no_reverse <filename> [ override ]
dns resolveroptions <options>
