FTPS as fallback to SFTP possible? #10

Closed TobiasWantzen closed 3 years ago

TobiasWantzen commented 3 years ago

I’m taking care of two OJS installations on two different servers hosted by two different hosting providers. Since hosting provider A was willing to recompile CURL with SFTP support, hosting provider B is not willing to do so, and says, I should use FTPS instead – both hosting providers support FTPS for CURL out of the box.

Is there a chance to use FTPS instead or as fallback within the plugin as it seems to have a wider support?

Thanks, Tobias!

Hi Tobias,

even if we would implement FTPS support it wouldn't help you with your problem. The DNB only provides SFTP access to the hotfolder server and no FTPS (which uses a ftp connection with an SSL layer). So its not at all our decision.

Best wishes, Ronald
