RE: pure-ftpd & large uploads.

I chose to compile the pureftpd without the largefile option, and later I had to upload a large nearly 5 GB file. So the uploading worked for me, even over 2GB, but if the upload crashesh it is not resumable. I should have installed the --with-largefile thingy. Actually why does it exist... everyone may have the need to upload a big file.

I was wondering if there is a limitation with pure-ftp, or any issues (stability), or can it handle it? if it can? is there any option of allowing users to RESUME their uploads if they are disconnected half way through the upload?

Hi,
to enble files > 2GB you should compile pureftpd with --with-largefile option,
and the -K switch should allow uploads to be resumed
