--JP+T4n/bALQSJXh8 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable That's not what he is saying.. In order to see the load decrease the server and client would have to also have encryption turned down.. I'm not sure if there is even a way to turn encryption off. My question is however, if you're wanting to turn the encryption off, what is the reason that a standard ftpd would not solve the problem. muddleftpd is a very flexible and well built ftpd and well worth a look if you're worried about the ftpd being an issue due to security.
