Hi all,
In F7, ncftp-3.2.0 would gladly use the IPV6 address of a host if
offered. In F8, ncftp-3.2.1 ignores the v6 address in favor of the v4
address. I understand that a patch is required. Does anyone know if
it will be added as errata in the lifetime of F8?
I thought ncftp had died. I used it as far back as my OS/2, but about
ncftp 3.x I think it was it was changed incompatibly and became less
useful to me.
These days I use lftp as my preferred ftp client. I think it's part of
the default set.
I'm sorry, I have to ask.
How does that being to answer the OP's question? I mean it doesn't even say
that lftp does what the OP wants. Some folks may consider that answer
almost as bad as a poorly formed question.
I'm sure Bill will ask for clarification if he needs it.
I don't know whether it does IP6 because I don't use IP6 and don't even
know where to go to test it. However, Bill's a capable fellow and well
able to install it and try it.
Functionally, ncftp and lftp do a pretty similar job.
