Description:
I want to access a FTP server which is only available with IPv6. This is embedded into some local network device. I tried several other FTP clients but for some reason only tnftp works. After trying and digging around a bit, I found out that the "SOCKS5 proxy support" in the tnftp client actually rules out IPv6 support. So passing --with-socks=no to configure fixes this. Would be nice if this could be added. If you want to provide both (SOCKS5 and IPv6), then maybe build twice and name the IPv6 version "tnftp6"? |
This task depends upon
Other distributions don't seem to do this:
https://packages.debian.org/buster/tnftp
So the package maintainer has to decide. SOCKS or IPv6. If you prefer SOCKS, please close this report. I would create an tnftp6 AUR package in this case.
