Displays:

ServerIdent

The message displayed on connect.

Anonymous

Whether or not a user can transfer files to the server anonymously. Enabled means the server supports anonymous transfers; disabled means it does not.

Note: The default directory for all anonymous transfers is /var/ftp.

TimeoutIdle

The maximum number of seconds the FTP server allows a client to stay connected without receiving data on either the control or data connection. If data is received on either connection, the idle timer is reset.

The default TimeoutIdle is 600 seconds.

You can disable the timer by specifying 0. Clients can stay connected indefinitely without sending data.

Note: Disabling the timer is not recommended because a hanging TCP connection prevents a child server from existing. The child server then must be manually removed.

TimeoutNoTransfer

The maximum number of seconds a client can stay connected after authentication, without issuing a command. The command may be sending or receiving a file or receiving a directory listing that results in an active or passive data connection.

The default TimeoutNoTransfer is 600 seconds.

TimeoutLogin

The maximum number of seconds a client can spend verifying a login ID and password. The login timer is not reset when a client transmits data and is only removed once a client has transmitted an acceptable USER/PASS command combination.

The default TimeoutLogin is 300 seconds.

MaxInstances

The maximum number of simultaneous connections allowed.
