James,
My problem is not "FTP only" logons.   That is handled by VESOFT security
via the SYSTEM LOGON UDC.  I need to handle the converse, i.e., I don't want
FTP access for other USER IDs.  Any user ID configured on the system can
bypass SECURITY/3000 and logon via FTP.   I also don't know a way to get a
list of USER IDs that logon via FTP.   This is the only list I get in the
JINETD STDLIST.    It's nice to have a count, but who is logging on?

     49   Received call for: ftp tcp

                Hello Chris,

                Re: FTP Server Messages

                Every time I start an FTP session on the HP3000 I get the
following
                message in the stdlist for JFTPMON

                  New server created <date> on pin nn

                I am using MPE 5.5. I have a program which generates an FTP
session at
                least every 5 minutes.  I am worried that the spoolfile will
become
                very large !  Is there a way of disabling this message ?
Does this
                message also appear in other releases of MPE ?  Thanks for
any help

                Their is no configurable way to eliminate this message,
maybe someone
                out here has a trick, but the answer is no.

                I calculate this entry and a blank line would be seen 228
times per
                day = 456 lines and this would equal 6-7 pages of text per
day if
                you printed it (I would not suggest their is value in
printing it).
                The disk space utilization which takes up by 6-7 pages per
day
                does not seem significant to me, but that of course is
relative to
                your available disk space.

                I would certainly include a ;outclass=,1 parameter on my
JFTPMON
                logon to avoid printing this $STDLIST and I would stop the
JFTPMON
                before backups and "poolf delete" the $stdlist, then a new
empty
                one would be created when JFTPMON log's back on...

                A similar entry is also logged on 6.0 & 6.5 when FTP is
started
                under JINETD on 6.0 & 6.5:

                  Received call for: ftp tcp

                P.S. The value of having this entry in the $stdlist of
JFTPSTRT or
                JINETD is for trouble shooting purposes.   I hope this
helps.
