We're pleased to provide an update to ncFTP Client 3.1.5 for RedHat 7.2 based systems (Ensim included).
3.1.5 addresses a minor security issue where a malicious or trojaned FTP server could send back pathnames with directories different from the directory requested. ( http://www.ncftp.com/ncftp/doc/changelog.html#3.1.5 )
You can find this update at
http://www.webppliance.info
NOTE: If you are using Ameen's backup script for Ensim, you will need to change the various ftp lines to start with:
ncftpput -m -u $ftpuser -p $ftppass $ftphost
This is due to a change in the parameter handling logic in ncFTP 3.1x

NOTE: If you are using Ameen's backup script for Ensim, you will need to change the FTP= line to:
FTP=`ncftpput -u $ftpuser -p $ftppass $ftphost ./ /tmp/uploadtest >/tmp/.ftptest 2>&1`
FTP=`ncftpput -u $ftpuser -p $ftppass $ftphost ./ /tmp/uploadtest >/tmp/.ftptest 2>&1`
Yes, that did the trick! We're back(up) in business again.
Thanks a million, Gpan!
