[SOLVED] Today's update removes FTP Client and Server
« on: September 17, 2010, 12:44:46 PM »
After doing today's update I noticed that it has removed both the FTP-Client and the FTP-server.  Is it possible to remedy this? I use the ftp-client all the time.

I don't know why but your image links aren't visible in Opera, Konqueror or Firefox. (At first I thought this was a result of the big update, but actually the server with the images doesn't seem to be reachable.)

Strange,  I can see them just fine. I have tried it in both Opera and Firefox. I also have check using my neighbor's computer using IE7 and see it also.  I will go over to the Library and give it a try using their system.  Is anyone else having this problem?  This problem aside though, is there a way to get the ftp-client and ftp-server rpms put back?

That would be great if it were not a headless system that I am using.

Have you tried one of the other ftp clients? I prefer Filezilla myself. I know it is a nuisance not to have the client you want, but I don't see ftp-client in the PASS repo, either.

I do see the images in your post, however; must be a European invisibility thing. ;)

what happen when you try to reinstall them?

file a broken package report if it fails, the more info you give on your report, the quicker the problem will be fixed.

O-P's problem is that it's gone - no more ftp-client-krb5 - not a broken package.

krb5 src 1.8.x no longer provides krb5-ftp server or client packages. I did find a Fedora package called krb5-appl-1.0.1 but it is too early to tell if it will work on pclinuxos.

Here are some alternative console ftp clients for now.

atftp
lftp  <--recommended
ncftp
qftp

Hope this helps.

That's true.   :D

lftp

Take a look at etc/lftp.conf

The rpms are gone after the latest update. They are just not there.

No images here either   ???

I've uploaded krb5-appl-clients-1.0.1-1pclos2010.i586.rpm krb5-appl-servers-1.0.1-1pclos2010.i586.rpm packages to the repo.

krb5-appl-clients contains the following binaries. Maybe that will work for you.


/usr/kerberos/bin/ftp
/usr/kerberos/bin/krlogin
/usr/kerberos/bin/krsh
/usr/kerberos/bin/rcp
/usr/kerberos/bin/rlogin
/usr/kerberos/bin/rsh
/usr/kerberos/bin/telnet
