https://www.kernel.org/category/site-news.html Linux内核官网kernel.org宣布将在3月1日关闭FTP服务器ftp://ftp.kernel.org， 12月1日关闭ftp://ftp.mirrors.kernel.org服务器。 kernel.org解释了关闭FTP服务器的理由：FTP协议是低效的，需要向防火墙和负载均衡守护进程添加复杂的程序；FTP服务器不支持缓存和加速器，严重影响性能；绝大数FTP协议的软件实现已经陷入停滞，很少更新。因此决定在年底前关闭所有FTP服务器，但为了最小化潜在干扰而决定将关闭过程分成两个阶段完成。
Shutting down FTP services 2017-01-27 In Site news. Those of you who have been around for a while may remember a time when you used to be able to mount kernel.org directly as a partition on your system using NFS (or even SMB/CIFS). The Wayback Machine shows that this was still advertised some time in January 1998, but was removed by the time the December 1998 copy was made. Let's face it -- while kinda neat and convenient, offering a public NFS/CIFS server was a Pretty Bad Idea, not only because both these protocols are pretty terrible over high latency connections, but also because of important security implications. Well, 19 years later we're thinking it's time to terminate another service that has important protocol and security implications -- our FTP servers. Our decision is driven by the following considerations: The protocol is inefficient and requires adding awkward kludges to firewalls and load-balancing daemons FTP servers have no support for caching or accelerators, which has significant performance impacts Most software implementations have stagnated and see infrequent updates All kernel.org FTP services will be shut down by the end of this year. In hopes to minimise the potential disruption, we will be doing it in two stages: 1. ftp://ftp.kernel.org/ service will be terminated on March 1, 2017 2. ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/ service will be terminated on December 1, 2017 If you have any concerns, please feel free to contact [email protected] (ah, the irony). 本文转载于微信公众号: 操作系统课程学习(jsutOS)，更多微信文章请扫描关注公众号: |
