definition in all affected packages. For those that are not caught, an
additional check is placed into bsd.pkginstall.mk.
ftpsesame helps the FTP protocol get through your pf(4) firewall. It does
this by passively analysing FTP control connections and adding rules into a
pf(4) anchor when an FTP data connection is about to commence.
You might want to try ftpsesame instead of ftp-proxy(8) for the
following reasons:
* it runs on "transparent" (no IP address) bridges
* you need packetfilter performance on all data connections
* you have to handle lots of simultaneous sessions
* you do not want to redirect any traffic to the firewall itself:
for IP accounting or other reasons
In general, ftpsesame is a good choice to run on a firewall in front of
multiple FTP servers, where no NAT is involved. ftp-proxy(8) is usually the
best choice when users behind NAT need to access FTP servers on the Internet.
In other situations it depends, sometimes they are useful together.
Works with security/pflkm and on OpenBSD 3.6.
