NAME

ftamd-ftp - MITRE FTAM/FTP gateway

SYNOPSIS

/usr/sbin/iso.ftam-ftp[-c]magic arguments(under /usr/sbin/tsapd )

DESCRIPTION

The ftamd-ftp server appears to implement the responder side ofthe File Transfer, Access, and Management (FTAM) service,but is really an FTAM/FTP gateway.See ftamd (8c) for details on the FTAM service.

When using ftam with the MITRE FTP/FTAM gateway,the true destination is encoded in the user name (i.e., userAATTtcphost).

Note that the FTAM/FTP gateway is currently available on a differentpresentation address than the FTAM service on the gateway.To select the FTAM/FTP gateway,tell your ftam initiator to associate with the service having``qualifier'' ftpstore on the gateway host.For example, using ftam (1c):

% ftamftam> set qualifier ftpstoreftam> open gatewayuser (gateway:user): userAATTtcphostpassword (gateway:userAATTtcphost):

DIAGNOSTICS

All obvious.

BUGS

File information is limited to file names. All file access rights are assumeduntil access is attempted. The ftp server of the destinationgrants or denies action permission at the time of file access.

Empty directories may not berecognized depending on the ftp server of the destination machine. Thisbug manifests when trying to remove an empty directory.

The daemon should implement a crude form of access control foraccounting purposes(FTP service might not be free in all environments).
