I just wonder if nowadays it is possible to run on the same server, multiple ftpd daeomons which each daemon has its own dedicated port.
If it is possible, could you point me to a howto url.
Thanks,
Chris

Re: Multiple ftpd daemons
ftp can be configured to listen on a different port.
Exact instructions would depend on the Linux distributions.
Running two ftp daemons on the same system at the same time, probably would be difficult.
sshd on the other hand might be configured for one daemon to listen on several different ports. See internal documentation on sshd_config or ssh_config

Re: Multiple ftpd daemons
Thanks for replying. I am particularly interested in feasibility of running multiple ftp deamons on a same server. You stated that it can be difficult. So the question is, is it technically doable? If so, do you know how to or know where to look for howto info.
Regards.

Re: Multiple ftpd daemons
No I do not believe running two ftp daemons is tecnically feasible.
You can however use vmware/xen/kvm virtualization and run an entire system for this purpose. That will work.

Re: Multiple ftpd daemons
FTP daemon has limited buffer cache. My users only want to use ftp deamon (they are not willing to use anything else, which is silly from them)to transfer large amount of data within a contrainst timeline. FTP daemon buffer cache is not large enough to handle their jobs quickly. That how it came the idea of running multiple ftpd daemons on a same OS image to improve the transfer time. We are using mutltiple NICs with multiple dedicated IPs on same server, but the bottle neck is at the ftpd daemon level.
Court Campbell - Please contribute your answer to the question if you could without sarcastically questioning why people do or explore certain things for their oww purpose. The forum is to help each others out with their own needs, which I occasionly helped out others uncondiontianally.

Some people don't seem to know sarcasm, or
its absence, from a hole in the ground.
I would have asked the same thing. In about
the same way. It's fairly common for someone
to ask how to implement some sub-ideal
"solution" to a problem which has a much
better, different solution. Asking why you
wish to do what you wish to do is about the
only way to determine if what you wish to do
makes any sense at all. If this be sarcasm,
make the most of it.

I don't see why not, but it's not clear that
a typical FTP client could find a server on a
non-standard port. I also don't immediately
see why you'd want to do it.

And you determined this how, exactly?

Getting zero points from some people is as
great a reward as getting ten points from
someone whose opinion has some actual value.
And that's not sarcasm, either.
