But it's a really nasty hack, that introduces a lot of other issues.
- kjs3 11y agoYou mean FTP/S aka RFC4217? You ain't kidding about being a nasty hack. When it recently came up in my world, the only place it seemed to be really well supported was in the AS/400 world, where IBM seems to have standardized on it. Everywhere else there seemed to be any number of weirdnesses, incompatibilities and decrepit features. YMMV.
