Well, if you are using QNX 4, you are, by default, don’t care about security
The vendor, QSS, still hasn’t provided an updated “sendmail” after years past CERT security alert…
Seriously, the latest wu-ftpd should have fixed all those security holes.
As far as I know, qnxstart.com runs wu-ftpd on QNX 4. You might want to contact that site owner for the port, or igor can probably also give you the port.
Regarding “security” in QNX: yes, it’s rather insecure OS implementation!
I just do not use all those bells&whistles like sendmail.
I run a box (several, actually) which was on an isolated LAN segment. Now we need an access to the box from the outside, that’s why I try my best to plug all the holes.
I’ve found a ssh v1 port (currently a have some configuration problems with it), and the ftp is due to be replaced. I’ll be happy then.
igor DOES exist. It’s a bug in the forum software here (hope it will be fixed in the next release). You have to login first, and then click his name.
If you do it the other way around, it will give you the error “user does not exist”.
OpenSSH has been ported to QNX 4. Check the old posting in qdn.public.qnx4 on the news://inn.qnx.com
As gamers say “I’ve gained much Experience and got a LevelUp…”
I’m back to try porting vsftpd to QNX v4.25G, this time I managed to hack the sources (mostly removing any IPv6 references) so they do compile with Watcom v10.6 patch B + Security patch.
I’m stuck on linking.
I cannot figure out what the library I’ve forgot to include - these are the undefined symbols: dirfd_
setgroups_
initgroups_
getusershell_
endusershell_
Please help!
Tony.
(PS While I was “gaining the Experience” vsftps has got to v1.2.2)
