Description Need Real Name 2000-10-06 19:08:14 UTC

When I connect the Red Hat ftp client to an ftp server using GSSAPI authentication, if I issue the "ccc" command at the ftp client and the 
server accepts the command the control connection is "clear". The next command I issue at the client is sent in the clear (unprotected) to 
the server as it should be. The server sends an unprotected reply as it should, but the client flags it as an error saying it received and 
unprotected reply.
 According to RFC2228 "Once the CCC command completes successfully, if a command is not protected, then the reply to that command 
must also not be protected.

The same problem exists in the Red Hat ftp server. I connect to the server using GSSAPI authentication. I issue the CCC command which 
is accepted by the server. The next command I issue is sent unprotected to the server but the server returns a protected "631" reply. The 
server must respond with an unprotected reply to an unprotected command after the CCC command is successful.

From the submitter: We were finally able to install Red Hat 7.1 on our system and test this problem. As we figured the problem still 
exists in 7.1.
Where do we go from here??
Thanks,
