Software Update: Serv-U 6.1.0.4

Rhino Software has updated its ftp server software Serv-U to version 6.1.0.4. This small and easy-to-use program has enough options on board to also satisfy the professional. It can be tried as a Corporate Edition for the first 30 days. During that time there is an unlimited number of configurable domains, users per domain and simultaneous connections, and the possibility to set up secure connections (SSL/TLS). After this trial period, the program continues as a Personal Edition with somewhat limited functionality, including only a maximum of two domains and five user accounts. The changelog for this release shows the following changes:

What’s new?

• Many code changes due to porting code to MS Visual C++ compiler.
• File ServUDaemon.ini now restricted to Serv-U directory.
• Changed to ZLib v1.2.3 and OpenSSL v0.9.8a.
• Changed timer code in Serv-U to use multi-media timers, to avoid timer starvation on a busy server.
• Added 1 second timer tick event for add-on DLLs, EVNT_TimerTick.
• Added support for S/Key one-time-passwords for remote administrator accounts.
• Fixed bug when using `~` as part of path names.
• Fixed bug allowing malformed packets to remotely crash the server.
• Fixed bug causing server crashes when using the option disable an account at a specified date.
• Fixed bug causing excessive memory use by Daemon under certain conditions.
• Fixed bug in handling of CCC command.
