Issue: File Permisions On The FTP Server
Author: abalaban
I agree it would be good to support the DOS packet ACTION_SET_PROTECT I'll try to see what I can do about it in the next version. One has to understand well that in this case and even between two Amiga's you'll loose the protection value for bits SCRIPT, PURE and ARCHIVE because the FTP's CHMOD don't support them...

However you arespeaking about Grims can you provide me with a crash log ? Not supporting a packet is one thing crashing is another one...

This is implemented in the current development version.

I have plan to have a preference program that will enable you to set default values for each of these options. As I said above I agree with you the "Connection Ok" is not very usefull but until I release the next version I indicated a way to overcome the problem using the current release.

Doesn't help much for arbitrary sites.

But again, this suggestion isn't about finding ways to work around the problem from the user side.

It's a suggestion to update FTPMount itself.

I would advise you to create real directories in your hosts drawer, this way all your problems will disappear.

It's difficult because the handler has absolutely zero knowledge about the command being invoked : everything is translated into DOS packet sometimes the translation is straight forward : 1 command -> 1 DOS packet but this is generaly not the case, for example makedir (and I'm not speaking about Unix's mkdir) is at least first trying to lock the dir (to check its existance I guess) then it creates it, so the handler receives in this case at least two packets : ACTION_LOCATE_OBJECT and ACTION_CREATE_DIR.

About the automatic creation of icons I'm not sure I have reworked default values to be able to add (later) a preference program to configure this.

Interesting

I already rework the password remembering in the 1.6 version however I can see what I can do about your proposition

Verbosity of FTPMount

You can control how much verbose FTPMount is by using a tooltype in the host icon. However you are right the "Connection Ok" requester is not mandatory and can be removed.

It should just display a warning and then do nothing I think.

edit: Or alternatively automatically create, but not connect to, a new predefined ftp site. "mkdir ftp.banana.com" adds a new "ftp.banana.com.info"

What should be the right action do this ?

You are right this should not crash, however what should FTPMount do exactly ?
What did the user meant by trying to create a directory in FTP: ? Should FTPMount try to connect to an host named as the directory which is tried to be created ?
