AndFTP does not implement SSL session reuse

Post by mburger »

I would like to use AndFTP to connect to a server that provides FTPS via vsftpd.

Since February 2009, vsftpd enforces SSL session reuse for security reasons.

Unfortunately, AndFTP does not implement SSL session reuse between the control and data connection, which results in log messages like

Code: Select all

DEBUG: Client "n.n.n.n", "No SSL session reuse on data channel."
on the server and AndFTP throwing an exception whenever an upload is supposed to start.

Are there any plans to implement SSL session reuse?

Yes, we've tried but it seems there is a problem in socket layer provided by Android OS for socket re-use.

Is there any corresponding entry in Android's issue tracker? If not, could you create a new issue there, please?
