support for TSL or SSL

chino · 11-20-2001, 05:38 AM

Will flashfxp get support for TSL or SSL ..? alot of sites is using some form of crypt. and right now there are no other "server to server" clients other than linux who's supporting this. Would be great if flashfxp could get support for this.

Yes.. well maybe.. see below.

may I ask why it isent possible to build in SSL or something? Like he sayd - many sites now using protected ftp's. I whould lovly like it , since no other windows FXP client does it

FXP thru SSL isn't possible, as you, the 3rd party in an FXP connection, can't instruct either of the two remaining parties to initiate the SSL connection. Please go to the RFCs and read up on the technology you're asking for.

I dont think they wanted FXP using TSL (SSL).. I bet they ment they would like to Upload/Download using it... this could be possible with a proxy, if flash had proper socks5 support... (I've written such proxy (socks5 compat, unix) for control channel.. but due limited implementation of socks5 protocol in flash I cannot ad d support for data channels) Downloadable through http://darkone.mglan.net/

CuteFTP Pro supports SSL .....

here u can find an example of configuration RaidenFTPd + IPWorks Secure Tunnel http://www.raidenftpd.com/kb/kb00000001.html

fxp is possible with patches and tools (winsslwrap whatever)

But would me much cooler if flashfxp would support it native

ya native support would be sweet ...

But I found this nice page on how to setup an sslwrap ...

New version of SmartFTP will support SSL and it's free.

If someone happens to have a delphi interface to the SSL dll's which is compatible with an existing socket library, I will be more than happy to give it a try. Oh and I'll need an SSL capable ftp server.

I have such an interface you might be able to use, bigstar.

A little off topic, but does anyone know of a linux program similar in function to WinSSL that i could run on a remote computer and connect through? Something like an ftp bnc or proxy with ssl support. Thanks for any info.

Shorty · 01-23-2002, 06:47 AM

mikeyboy,

u can use psybnc. You could use ez bouncer, but since u want ssl support, gotta be psybnc.
url for psybnc is http://www.psychoid.lam3rz.de/

mikeyboy · 01-23-2002, 10:18 PM

I know of psybnc, but i thought it was for irc only? Please correct me if i'm wrong..I'm looking for SSL support for FTP like WinSSLWrap (which has both).

www.stunnel.org is a SSL tunneling program, orginally for Linux but there's windows binaries there that works perfectly fine.
You simply set it up to listen to a port locally, and tunnel to a remote SSL machine (it could be a SSL IRC server or FTP or pretty much whatever), then connect to the configured port with your client (would be FlashFXP in this case then) and you got a SSL connection with the remote server :-) It's based upon OpenSSL.. For Windows SSL FTP servers, check out the Serv-U 4 beta (SSL is the big news for Serv-U 4). Good luck!
