27Known problems (2.6.2)
28======================
29These are problems which are known and will be corrected in future versions.
30
31
32
33class=
34------
35The 'class=' phrase does not work as documented in the
36upload.configuration.HOWTO.  This is because the way the ftpaccess file is
37handled is far too simplistic for the feature.  This is most appearent on
38the delete, rename, overwrite and chmod clauses.
39
40To work arround this problem, you first need to know the default for these
41clauses is 'no' for anonymous users and 'yes' for real and guest users.  To
42override the default for a specific class, you can use the 'class=' phrase.
43The problem occurs when you want to override the default for all but a
44given class; in this case you'll need to explicitly list each class.

47
48getcwd()
49--------
50A number of systems have no getcwd() function or their implementation of
51the function is broken in some way.  A portable version of the getcwd()
52function has been included in the support directory.  NeXTstep version 3
53(nx3) and SunOS 4.1 (s41) are configured to use this portable version of
54getcwd().  If your system is one of the following systems, and you get this
55portable version to work, please report any change needed so we may include
56them in a future release.  Remember, systems without a working getcwd()
57have an identified security problem.
58
59Systems needing getcwd():
60
61  BSD 4.4       (bsd)
62  Unix 3.x      (dec)
63  DG/UX         (dgx)
64  Dynix         (dyn)
65  generic       (gen)
66  NeXTstep 2.x  (nx2)
67  OSF/1         (osf)
68  Sony NewsOS   (sny)
