FTPS
Transferring a test file 40MB on a 100Mbps lan via filezilla, the
transfer rate is very slow starts 136kbps (yeah as if running on
1500adsl line) then drops to below 30 kbps. Using HTTPS to transfer the
same file, it runs on lan wire speed. Same results using a 170MB test
file. Maybe it's due to filezilla or maybe the fault is on the ssl
side. Using same test files suing plain ftp (disabled ssl/tls),
transfer rate is on wire speed.

HTTPS
If Require Authentication is ticked in SSL/TLS Encryption, you cannot
assign each user its own unique folder. You can only assign one (1)
home folder for all users. Can this be changed so that each user will
only access the folder(s) assigned to such user? I intend to use https
as a fall back to ftp.

Looks like user "Guest" is the default user. If Require Authentication
is ticked, user Guest disappears and it now allows you select
user/group to add.

Noticed that under Options, the Max Post size defaults to 2mb but I
could still upload 40 or 170mb file. What does Max POST really do?


Error checking and error handling

Are these this in place during

1. Creation of users (allow only valid characters/numerals)

2. Creation of passwords

3. Abnormal conditions such as aborted transfers/transmissions or
abnormal terminations of https sessions.
