Hi,
I tried the binary as well as the source of pure-ftpd from the
Third-Party CD, but it failes when I download a file. Uploading goed
fine.
In file ftpd.c line 2679 mmap on the file descriptor returns -1;
perror(“mmap:”) tells me:
mmap: Not supported
The uid=0 so it’s not a permission problem.
I am using QNX 6.2.
Did anyone solve this ?
Thanks,
Pim

Do not use mmap in file mapping (that’s the best solution), or pass the
MAP_NOSYNCFILE to mmap (But memory will not be synced to file). With this
flag you will able to read file from memory, but not to write to that
memory, in which file was mapped. In case of write you’ll get SEGFAULT.

I found the solution in another topic:
http://www.openqnx.com/PNphpBB2-viewtopic-t1906-.html
I had to use the undocumented flag MMAP_NOSYNCFILE for the mmap call.

Thanks Mike,
I posted my solution before checking for a reply 
pure-ftpd is only reading the file with mmap so that should be no
problem.
