Sftp v6...



Is anyone shipping SFTP v6 yet?

I've realized we have the following bugs in the specification:

  + I removed the valid access mask from the "supported2"
    extension because when opening a file, masking off unsupported
    access just results in requesting no access-- so the server
    has to responisble for doing the mapping.

    However, we still need this information for setting ACLs.

  + We need a way to differentiate between systems that don't
    support ACLs, a file w/o an ACL (all access) and a file
    with an empty ACL (no access)

So if we don't have any one shipping yet, I'll definitely
slip the first one into a quick fix.  I'm still thinking
about the correct fix for the second one, but I think I can
get it out pretty quick to.

If we do having shipping code, I'll have to go for plan b.

Thanks,

Joseph
