[Proftpd-user] Hello / how to remove leading ".\"

Hej all,

I have registered here, hoping to get help with the following question:

I installed proftpd on a Debian stretch box to replace a Windows ftp
server. Some Windows clients write files to a directory and another
Windows client shall read the files and then delete them.

The writing clients leave the files with a prefix ".\". in the
ftp-directory (leading "point Backslash").
The reading client cannot see these files (because of the dot) and
probably cannot process them (because of the backslash).

I tried to rename one of the files manually. Then everything works just
fine.

How do I get proftd to present the files without the ".\" to the client
and make it possible to read and delete the files? What is the
appropriate tool - mod_rewrite?

Thank you for your ideas!

Regards,


Boris
