Hi,
we have installed solaris 10 and I wonder if it is possible to modify
the goodbye message.
Actual I get

221-You have transferred 0 bytes in 0 files.
221-Total traffic for this session was 166 bytes in 0 transfers.
221-Thank you for using the FTP service on soladm.
221 Goodbye.

but I want to have

221 Goodbye

only.

Is this possible
Thank you
Reinhard

This is hard-coded in the daemon. File an RFE.

(Currently, the code uses an ugly #define TRANSFER_COUNT to control
this behavior, rather than having a run-time flag. It seems fairly
reasonable to me to ask to have this converted to a configuration
option.)

Use a binary editor to patch the daemon. And file an RFE.

What kind of binary editor do you generally use for patching daemons?
What if recompiling the original wu-ftpd from the source, after editing
the required file? I know, that might be little troublesome.
