QFtpServer - an FTP server written in Qt

I based it on QFtpServer and used it for RabbitRemoteControl

Description

QFtpServer is an event-driven server which is written entirely in Qt. It is non-blocking and supports multiple connections.

This project started because I couldn't find a free FTP server for my Symbian phone so I decided to try and make one of my own. I've tested it against Filezilla, Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Windows Explorer, and others.

QFtpServerLib

Features

It supports:

• Active connections (PORT command).
• Passive connections (PASV command).
• Random access for files (APPE, RETR), so stopped uploads and downloads can be continued.
• Secure FTP, also known as FTP-ES which uses SSL/TLS sockets.

It doesn't support:

• IPv6.
• FTPS (this standard is obsolete and FTP-ES should be used instead).
• Multiple user accounts.
• Securely bind network card interfaces and filter interfaces.

Example usage:

server = new CFtpServer(this, "/ftp/root/path", 21, "MyUserName",
                       "MyPassword", false);
server->Listening();
