Does any one know if it is possible to customize the FTP Response Codes that are used on the Serv-U MFT Server.
I want to change a variable for Response Code 250, but it seems that in order for me to do so, I have to go in all commands that have a reference to 250.
Is there a centralized file where I can make the change only once and have that change reflect to all other FTP command that are referencing it??
Thanks in advance for you reply and cooperation.

How do I share a folder with another user (or a group of users) in FTP Voyager?
FTP Voyager Hangs at Exit
FTP Voyager hangs almost 100% of the time when exiting the app. I usually exit by clicking the X at the upper right. It's marginally better if I remember to Disconnect the session and use the Exit FTP Voyager button. The only solution if it hang is to use Task Manager and kill the process.

Multi-AD Domains without suffix ?
Hello,
First, I set the identification for a single domain: by entering the Login ID suffix it works.
Then for corporate needs, I need to use 3 subdomains.
Accounts to identify are:
- Xa.aaaaa @ domainA.mycorp.corp (without spaces)
- Xb.bbbbb @ domainB.mycorp.corp
- Xc.ccccc @ domainC.mycorp.corp
To consider this need, I connects to the GC of the forest and remove the LDAP suffix.
Connection Test: OK for all accounts (with the suffix).
For the sake of convenience, I would like that users do not have to inform their suffix.
So I attach the suffix "@*".
LDAP queries work correctly, I get my users well (only one answer each time, we have a different type of naming for each domain).
Search : (&(objectclass=user)(userPrincipalName=Xb.bbbbb@*)) ==> for domain user domainB.mycorp.corp
Search : (&(objectclass=user)(userPrincipalName=Xa.aaaaa@*)) ==> for domain user domainA.mycorp.corp
By cons, it is impossible to identify anyone on Serv-U...
If you have any tips ...

Allow access to WebClient and deny access to File Sharing
Hello,
I don't any rules for deny the access to the File Sharing app.
How do it ?
(For deny the access to the WebClient, I just remove the HomeDir of the users).

Serv-U Event Filters
I have an FTP directory that I want to alert on. I have a group email set up and I'm trying to test an alert to them so that if a customer uploads a file to this directory they get notified. I'm getting global alerts as the admin but I'm having trouble figuring out what the Event Filter would be to scope it down to just this particular directory. $LocalPathName looked promising as that's what's in the default alert but it includes the file name. I just want alerts fired for the root path i.e. C:\FTPRoot\DirectoryName. Could just filter on the upload user account but I'd really like to alert regardless of who uploads into this directory. The Filter Comparison builder just has boolean type functions - was hoping it had "Contains" or "Begins with" but it didn't.
Thanks,
Casey
Can no longer upload file via web client to Serv-U
Latest version of ServU is running on XP.
Clients can log in with the web client, but when they try to upload any file, it hangs after just a few KB are uploaded.
This just started happening a few days ago.
Any ideas?
Heartbleed.com - OpenSSL security concerns
Hello Serv-U users,
With the announcement of the Heartbleed bug\ CVE-2014-0160we are seeing a large amount of our users concerned with their deployments of Serv-U being affected.
The links about tell us that only the following OpenSSL libraries are effected
- OpenSSL 1.0.1 through 1.0.1f (inclusive) are vulnerable
- OpenSSL 1.0.1g is NOT vulnerable
- OpenSSL 1.0.0 branch is NOT vulnerable
- OpenSSL 0.9.8 branch is NOT vulnerable
Serv-U is officially UNAFFECTED due to the fact we are currently using OpenSSL 0.9.8
We made sure though our own testing and validation that the "heartbleed" bug is something our administrators do not need to worry about.
If you have any questions comments or concerns about this issue please feel free to reply to this or submit a technical support ticket
How can I create a mirrored FTP with Serv-U?
I have two geographically disperse datacenters and I would like to have the same FTP credentials available from either site. I can worry about data replication through other means, my primary concern is the replication of the user credentials. Has anyone else addressed this? If so, how?
Serv-u auto populate email on file share page
We just setup the serv-u MFT and file share app. I have it connected to a WIndows AD domain via Windows Authentication in the interface. I noticed that it doesn't populate the email address nor their name in the email page ofr the file share. Is there a way to do that other than changing to LDAP like this thread mentions.

Serv-U version 14
Is there a way to export a list of users? I am running Serv-U FTP on Windows Server 2003 Enterprise. The reason is I have lots of users that are no longer needed and I want to remove them. Too many to go down the list. I will also, need to remove their data folders too, but, that part is easy.
File Send Error
I have Serv-U File Sharing setup and when I try to upload a file in the WebUI I keep encountering the following error...
ERROR: The specified file or directory does not exist.
I have tried using different files, different browsers, and even a different system and I still get this error. Is there some piece of configuration that I am missing?
Serv-U FTP
What operating system can the Serv-U FTP version 14.0.0.6 run on? Windows 7 32-bit, Windows 7 64-bit or Windows 2008 server? Thank you!
how do you migrate serv u to a new server
Replacing sbs 2003 with windows server 2012. How do you move your serv u settings and users, etc to a new server.
Can i simply install the program on the new server, then copy the program folder from the program files directory off the old server and copy it over the folder on the new server?
Just a guess?
Changes in the database are not reflected until the service is restarted
Hi,
We are starting to integrate into Serv-U FTP by using the ODBC attached database to allow us to create and administrate groups and users. I have let Serv-U create the tables in the database so these are native serv-u tables. No mappings. I am first testing out how this is going to work by manually changing and inserting data into the MS SQL server database using SQL Management Studio.
I am using the Linux version SU-FTP-Server-Linux-64bit-v15.0.0 on Ubuntu with an ODBC connection to MS SQL 2012. The FTP server works and I am able to admin the database users and groups in the Web Administrator. The problem is if I attempt to change a value directly in the database the Web Admin nor the FTP service are detecting the change. It appears the Web Admin and the FTP service are caching the data from the database in memory. I have a group that I am changing the Enabled field from true to false. In the database the value of 0 is observed but the FTP Web Admin continues to display the group as enabled even when I refresh the browser or exit and enter the group editor. The FTP server continues to let the users access even though the group has been disabled in the database. Note this is not a case where I have an override "enable" on the user. If I restart the Serv-U service and load up the Web Admin it will correctly read the state change in the group and display it as disabled. The FTP service will also deny the user access since the group is disabled. Now, if I update the group again directly in the database and change it to enable true the Web Admin will not reflect the change and the FTP service will not reflect the change. Both will continue to consider the group disabled even though the database has it set to enable. Enable with a 1 or null set. But for my testing I am setting it to 1. Again, if i restart the service the state change will be detected.
I am now testing if I have to wait for it to eventually detect the change but it has not happened in the time for me to write this question.
The final question I guess is. Can I make changes directly to the database and will the FTP and Admin see these changes without me having to restart the service.

Multiple public keys for authentication of one user
I have a need to allow two public keys to authenticate, how do I configure that in Serv-U?
I have the two public keys and I can get them to work individually, but there is only one text box to put the file name in.
I also tried to concatenate them together, which allows the first key to work, but not the 2nd.
Am I missing something?
Serv-U Linux Database Integration Problem
Hello all. I am trying to set up a Serv-U HA environment running on Linux. To do this I am trying to configure ODBC database integration to a MS SQL database. I am following the database integration document and everything works great up to the point of configuring the database in the Management Console. When I put in the Data Source, account, and password in the Management Console, the Serv-U process crashes and the Management Console displays the following message:
Also, the following messages are logged in the /var/log/messages file:
These messages show three separate attempts to save the configuration. To recover, I have to delete the Serv-U.Archive file, replace it with the backup, and restart Serv-U. This is very repeatable in that I have duplicated it on multiple servers of both RHEL 6.5 and CentOS 6.5 and reinstalled Serv-U numerous times. This is on the latest version of Serv-U (15.0.1.20).
ODBC is working fine. I am able to connect to my DB with isql and create tables, insert data, and drop the table without any issues using the same data source and sql account.
Any suggestions?
How to lock user into a client?
I know I can set a Default Web Client for users. Is there a way to lock the user into only using a particular client?
For example, if I set a user's default web client to File Sharing, I may not want them to be able to use the selector drop down to select the Web Client nor the FTP Voyager client.
'file in use' error
Hello,
Sometimes an application program tries to open and read a file that is still being sent to, or received by, the FTP server.
Is there a way to test if a file being transfered or if it has completed transfer?
Thank you
