5.1.0 discussion

darkone · 09-23-2003, 03:29 PM

Main focus has been on modules, optimizations & code clean-up.. however, if there is something small that you would like to see in it, post your suggestion here...

I think, that I have already mentioned on irc (efnet #ioftpd), that 5.2.0 will be focused on http admin interface. 5.3.0 should be first version to include some sort of speed limits (per device & per user) and 5.4.0 will introduce encryption threads & remove os buffering from sockets and files.

As usual, I'm not giving you any dates.. and if you dare to keep asking me about release dates, you can be sure that you get ignored permanently

You may, and should however, discuss about features, timelines (priorities) & such.

... ahh yes, 5.1.0 should be done by this weekend

I already mentionned that, but would be good to be able to switch speed limiting checks on and off, so there would be no performance decrease if we don't want to limit bw usage.

I'm begging for a flame here, but:

I'd like an option to toss .ioftpd and it's symlinks and just use NT acl's.

If possible, give us the ability to schedule turning of limits on and off for the entire sites bandwidth, upstream and downstream seperately.

Something that may also be useful is to be able to set a maximum amount of data that is allowed to be transferred through the site on a monthly basis. If the transfer gets to be near the site limit, the site warns M users, if the site gets to the limit, it does not allow transfers unless reset.. just a thought

I guess then I'll be waiting for 5.3...io badly needs bandwidth limits...http interface is not as necessary as the bandwidth limits in my opinion.

Adding an idle exception flag, so any user with "X" as a flag does not have an idle time out. (For sitebots)

Probably already metioned, just thought I would bring it up.

MaistroX · 09-23-2003, 05:12 PM

yes, allso are for BW limitation, both for for /server and /user !

Build in site user command for users to see stats about themselves, as in glFTPD.

Idle time per user / group is my biggest wish.

D1, you said it could be done easilly for b5, but I think you forgot about it.

Try doing a site user on glftpd. id really like the same options for ioftpd.

1. idle time
2. max ul & download threads

Godspeed

BW items for me as well...all else right now are not a must.

I need to get IO "back" online...and this is what has been stopping me. (Raiden is failing files...as per normal...argh!!!!!)

1 - Global for us that have to cut main bw on in or outbound...

2 - Per user settings

This is what I am waiting for.

And per group!! Then global for server (in + out limiting) or seperate in free and out limited etc..

Linkster · 09-24-2003, 10:41 AM

you should swap the 5.2 and 5.3 priorities. BW limiting is FAR more important than http interface. And i know this has been mentioned but, can "run as native nt service" get on the list soon? if 5.2 could incorporate those 2 things, i'd be "tickled pink!"

Good luck d1!
