Hi have a question about implementing ssl and ftp. I have installed
openssl from the hp download. I can't find any documentation about
setting up ssl and ftp. If anyone could point me in the right
direction I would appreciate it. I'm currently running sftp using ssh,
and we will need to keep normal ftp up and running for transfers of
pgp/gpg encrypted files.

Thanks
Joe

IIRC, while both have "ftp" in their names, FTP and sftp are not
related. For normal FTP, you just do the normal things via sam to
enable/disable/etc.

feel free to post, OR email to rick.jones2 in hp.com but NOT BOTH...

If Joe wants FTP over SSL then there are various commercial products
available such as WS-FTP and the Covalent Enterprise FTP Server.

I tried to build the GPL licenced vsftpd - with SSL support added -
and had problems.. from reading my notes, seems I need to re-build, under
11i, with the latest TOUR 2.2 release in place.

Personally I'd just configure SSH. Win users may use "WinSCP" while UNIX users
may use "scp". Encryption shows down transfers however. Keep that in mind.
