Iam newcomer in ioFTPD community,and just notice that the development process slightly slowed because of the main dev "DarkOne" dissapear from earth :D ,as we know ioFTPD set lower price than other ftpd product,and thats become main problem for inicom because lower income for them cann't set/hire full time dev,afaik only neoxed is the dev now.... i have a idea to make inicom can hire more full time, PROMOTE ioftpd!!!! put ioFTPD banner in all of your signature,who can ignore full feature rich ftpd (scripting,ssl(even not full)) for price as low as 15$ and for lifetime :cool: . ioFTPD might not really stable for big ftp service but cmon if ioFTPD more famous and many people buy then dev will be more faster :eek: (hopely) :)


Just my 0.2 cents :surprised

I wouldn't recomend ioFTPD to everyone simply because it would be like using a sledge hammer to crack a nut for most people.
It is actually extremely stable, as stable as windows ever gets, so I'd have to disagree with that. And big FTP services with no linux option is where it comes into its own. Its niche but its good at it.
For the average home user who wants to make home movies available to his Sister across the country its just way too complicated and unnecessary, a simple daemon like serv-u will do.

Like i said for now we only promoted as Small Scale FTPD and as might the user will increase propotional to big income ---> more dev??? , i know network programming not easy as it see thats why inicom need more dev to fastened their dev process

Setting ioFTPD not really hard if u have been using *nix before :) , we might can promote this in advance windows admin forum? or something smiliar like this ......
