thanks for the precisions. However, would it not be easier to have a standard ftp-server in the core? I liked very much my experience with the ftp server of dsl where you just have to active it in the control panel, and it works immediately with usual ftp protocols. For example: yesterday, I would like to connect the tftp-server of TC from a box with DSL on it, but did not get the connection because I did not have a tftp protocol. I know that vsftpd exists as extension, but I find it easier to have a common ftp-server in the core of tc which would be reachable quickly with ftp CLI. Just my opinion.
