FTP server
Anyone know of a Linux FTP server which locks a file when requested from a client and only unlocks the file when the client either automatically closes session (expires?) or the user uploads a new file?
Basically I need an FTP server which prevents the file from being read or written too while a remote client has opened it?
Suggestions?

Maybe I'm not understanding your exact question, but can't you lock any file by setting its CHMOD to 000
IF this is the case,my preference is filezilla, which has a great GUI and wonderful functionallity, they have tarballs for it I believe, I had it on linux Fedora core 2 and RH9, however, you may or may not find it for your flavor.

Re: FTP server
What have you come across so far hockey? I have no idea about locking, but I know use the vsFTP daemon. I am not sure if Filezilla offers a server. I thought it was just a client tool.Hockey wrote:Anyone know of a Linux FTP server which locks a file when requested from a client and only unlocks the file when the client either automatically closes session (expires?) or the user uploads a new file?
