THE SERV-U PROMO MESSAGE
========================
This is Serv-U version 2.0c, a FTP server (or Daemon) for MS-Windows
and its variants (Win95, NT) that use WinSock for TCP/IP network access.
Serv-U, the all purpose FTP server for WinSock offers the following:
* Lots of security: Passwords, read/write/modify rights per directory or
file for each user (including ANONYMOUS), access on the basis of
IP-number.
* Multiple simultaneous users and transfers.
* Both in 16- and 32-bit.
* Users can be put into groups for easy maintenance of large numbers.
* Serv-U works well with Mosaic, Netscape, and MS Internet Explorer.
* Access to all drives on your PC, including network drives.
* A quite complete (and strict) implementation of RFC959 and RFC1123,
including PASV, also supports the 'resume' command.
* Supports 'links' like those in UNIX.
* Supports multi-homed IP sites, and external user access verification DLLs.
* Configurable greeting messages, for signon, signoff, and login.
* Configurable directory change messages.
* Can run 'invisible' - with no user access to the program.
* Has a 'time-out' feature, so connections are automatically cleared when
idle or hung.
* Fast! Transfer speeds are close to the maximum possible on your PC.
* Easy to setup and maintain through menus. For automated maintenance the
settings are stored in an .INI file of simple format.
* Logs all transactions to file and screen that can be read by other
applications. Includes unique session IDs, time, and date stamps.
* Log file can be read by other applications while open, or transferred
through Serv-U.
* A Windows standard: Over 2500 registered users with many for multiple
copies.
* It is dirt cheap, less than 0.014ct per line of code!
TRY-OUT
=======
The 30 day try-out version comes in two flavors, one of which can be
chosen during the first start-up: Either a fully functional version that
contacts a permission server to enforce the 30 days of try-out, or, a
slightly crippled version that does not contact the permission server.
SERV-U FILES
============
Serv-U comes with the following files:
SERV-U16.EXE - The 16-bit FTP-server executable
- and/or -
SERV-U32.EXE - The 32-bit executable for Win95 and NT
SERV-U.DOC - The documentation in MS-Word v6 format
SERV-U.TXT - The documentation in ASCII format
README.TXT - This file
REGISTER.TXT - A registration form in ASCII format
VERSION.TXT - A list of changes between versions
FILE_ID.DIZ - Information file for bulletin boards
The file SERV-U.DOC is the manual in a nice looking format. This
reproduces best using a word processor that can read MS-Word v6 documents,
but if you use Windows 95 you can also use the 'WordPad' program that
comes with it (Although this will loose a bit in the translation).
Installation is easy, but please take a look at the documentation
before doing so. If you have an earlier version and want to upgrade
then this is also described in the documentation.
If you have any questions or comments then please check out the Cat
