host header mechanism for ftp servers?
Hi Is there an ftp server / ftp reverse proxy being capable of resolving multiple domains a similar way http servers do? I have only 1 public IP address and I should run two different ftp server boxes. Thanks & regards philipp
i guess not. since ftp doesnt have any mechanism like http-headers or so
forth.
you connect to an ip basically, and send user/pass and then you are logged
in. no other authentication or extra data can be sent for telling in what
ftp server/subsite you want to login ....
i dont know of any standard that ftp could achieve such thing...
cheers,
andy

Hello guys. Why not RTFM? One way is definitely described even in vsftpd manual. Maybe using ProFTPD will give you more (at least when talking about HTTPD-likeness, at least in the config file...)

Yes, there is. Install the "SuSE Proxy Suite". Set up split-brained DNS records (the world sees the public IP, the proxy sees multiple records) and have fun (licensed GPLv2). Peter
Some other ways I was thinking of if you don't find anything in the ProFTPD or vsftpd mans. One would be port redirection at the gateway/proxy. FTP to one port (say 21) for one server and another port (say 1121) for the other server. Another way may be to use an NFS mount point from one machine to the FTP server. This way you only need to connect to one FTP sever then path to the other server. I have not tried either of these methods, but will look in to the NFS setup.
