Show welcome banner vsftpd with client lftp

91 Views Asked by At

I'm configuring vsftpd with vsftpd.conf and I activate the line 106 that say "ftpd_banner=message". later I try to connect to this server with a lftp client with anonymous user and don't show the welcome banner.

lftp <IP_server> -u anonymous

If I connect with other client how ftp, I watch a banner, but not with lftp. It is a error of lftp or I need to configure better this line ? thanks

Seems like FileZilla doesn't show it anymore too: https://forum.filezilla-project.org/viewtopic.php?t=53641

lftp doesn't seem to have that feature. Because it may be run by a script, which won't « read » the information. So the information is by definition useless.

Did you try to get a specific information? Like space left? Maybe du is what you're looking for?
