FileZilla Makefile request

fluke · 2005-12-14 06:58:57

I want to build a copy of FileZilla from source, since I want to know if I can limite my local data port to a low range( because all the port bigger than 10000 are banned by my outgoing network ).

I have the source files, but I still need a makefile.

Filezilla is a windows app. It won't work under Linux.

If you want to use it under Windows, it might be easier to use the precompiled version with the installer.

That's strange, I most certainly know I once used it a couple of months ago. Thought it was in AUR, let me check

[edit]
yup, it is still there. It's a nice app snowman, you might want to try in once.
Anyway, here is the link

Couple of months ago? Thought the Linux support is new...

yup, but it is a cvs PKGBUILD, so there you are:

Thank you first.

And is there anyone who can tell me how to change the last two parameters in the PORT command?

PORT 192,168,132,245,19,74

You know the local data port is depend on the two parameters.

fluke, I've just built this thing, out of curiosity. Re your first question, about the Makefile, I generated it in the normal way i.e. cvs checkout -> ./autogen.sh -> ./configure.

As for the local port range, after launching the app, I clicked on Edit -> Settings, and in the dialog there's a "Limit local ports" option, where you can enter a port range for filezilla to use.

Any of that any use to you?

fluke · 2005-12-14 12:28:30

Hey tomk, thank you, they're very helpful for me! Thank you!

tomk · 2005-12-14 14:03:10

Glad it's what you're looking for.

I used a modified version of Pointer's PKGBUILD from the AUR, updated to comply with the CVS/SVN packaging guidelines on the wiki. I don't want to step on his work, so I've just uploaded it here (using FileZilla!) if anyone wants it.

I see... They haven't updated their website to include Linux as supported OS. I might give it a try.

I want to ask a non-tech question, but I cant find a chitchat place in the forum.

I don't know how to pronounce "'" in English when we describe something in math.
For example, we put the elements in S' to S.
Then, how to prounce the symbol ' in S' ?

kpiche · 2005-12-15 03:21:23

I think you call it S prime.

fluke · 2005-12-15 05:35:05

Ahha, in my school some call it S pi, some call it S slash.
I was very unclear about why they call it pi or slash.

I'm using Filezilla for a while, and here is a problem I have : when I want to overwrite several files, he asked me if I want to do it automatically for all the files, just this file, etc. However it doesn't work : any choice I make is not taking into account and filezilla asked me the same question for EACH file which is kind of painful when I have a lot of files to overwrite (quite often ).
Any help ?

tomk · 2005-12-15 13:29:22

I'd say the most realisitic option is to look for another ftp client, unless you know enough to go through the code and find the problem yourself. Here's my reasoning:

Kind of says it all, doesn't it?

fluke · 2005-12-16 16:33:09

Haha~

scarecrow · 2005-12-16 21:07:34

The best FTP client for Linux is (no surprise!) Filezilla 2 via wine (don't groan- it works flawlessly!).
Filezilla 3 is simply not ready yet, as Tim (the Filezilla boss) made the grave mistake to build the damn thing over wxwidgets, and up to date he is more an wxwidgets debugger than an FTP client developer...

tomk · 2005-12-16 23:25:57

Oh, I groaned - and how. "The best FTP client for Linux is Filezilla 2 for Windows." Thanks - that's a classic........

But then just go ahead and use gftp or kbear or kasablanca or kftpgrabber, and I can assure you you'll be pissed at no time at all... I can live with bugs, but not unmanageable ones.
Console FTP clients for *nix are generally OK, but for now all the GUI ones suck, more or less.
