There is a serious error of escape character on Serv-U for Linux, but Windows version has no problem.
My maintenance was ended in October 31, 2014. Customer Service of SolarWinds suggested to on-line forum THWACK for assistance.
I want to complain about this disappointment and critical problem. Yes, I consider this is a bug!
Install package was SU-FTP-Server-Linux-64bit-v15.1.0.tar.gz.
OS was CentOS 6.5 eng,64bit. I tried to move Serv-U server from Windows 2003 to CentOS.
In Serv-U Management console, if type any Traditional Chinese characters which contain escape character,
it will occur error, and Serv-U service will Crash!
For example, a Traditional Chinese character :"三", which hex code of unicode is 0x4E09, and will store as 0x09 0x4E.
Unfortunately 0x09 is an escape character which represents "\t". You will get 100% CPU usage and crash.
These escape characters which occur the critical problem are \a, \b, \t, \n, \v, \f, \r.
A total of about 500 for Traditional Chinese characters which contain escape character.
I think all Chinese/Japanese/Korean country will be affected. if using Serv-U for Linux.
I wish, Serv-U is still Serv-U for Linux.
Cheers.
