SUSE Recommended Update: Recommended update for pure-ftpd
This update to pure-ftpd documents how pam_umask's
configuration affects the FTP server umask settings.
Additionally, it replaces GPL parts of the code by those
released later by upstream under BSD license, resolving a
licensing issue.
This update also includes improvements and fixes specific
to Novell Open Enterprise Server environments that run
pure-ftpd (bnc#769694):
* Wait for nwlogin and nwlogout processes to terminate
before closing the FTP user session (bnc#693805)
* Fix timeouts in FTP logins due to LDAP subtree search
for NCP servers from (bnc#725137)
* Allow backslash characters ("") in pathnames
(bnc#749680)
* Remote server access fails with full domain names
(bnc#752356)
* DefaultHomeDirectory causes segfault/disconnect upon
anonymous login attempt (bnc#759995)
* "remote_server yes" causes error and failure for
pure-ftpd AltLog (bnc#779657).
