>Description:
NetBSD current's "ftpd" hangs on an "DELE" command sent from the client.
It's not a client problem because:
a) It happens with NetBSD's "ftp" and "ncftp".
b) It doesn't happen if I use one of these clients with a 1.2.1 server.
>How-To-Repeat:
Use "ftp" to connect to NetBSD-current system running the new "ftpd" and
try to delete a file. It doesn't matter if the file really exists or not.
>Fix:
I compared "delete()" in "ftpd.c" and the part of "ftpcmd.y" where it is
called with the same locations the 1.2.1 sources but didn't find any
difference. I'm stucked.
