hello there 9fanners,

Anyone know of a ftp server that allows execution of files
Or is there an ftpfs flag I can set to allow execution

*i.e.:*
-----------------------------------------------
term % ftpfs -m /tmp/mnt1 123.123.123.123
term % ape/psh
% cd ...
% configure
/bin/sh : ./configure: cannot execute - Access *d*enied
% pwd
/tmp/mnt1/kdrive/tcl8.6.14/unix
% ls configure
configure
--(chmod 777 on the dir in cygwin)
% cp configure FILE.1239762
% ls -l FILE.129762
total 1000
-rw-rw-rw- 1 ftp ftp 580711 Oct 14 10:17 FILE.129762

*note: touch *does not always work...
also: configure has +x in cygwin but not in plan9 until i copy it locally
*-------------------------------------------------*

Kind Regards
Conor

I don't think that this demand is a good idea on any OS. The ftp protocol is designed to transfer files as a whole.
To execute on a demand paging system you need to access the file randomly.
