Re: Another Secure FTP thread -- Protection Levels

C-Kermit does not allow the command channel to be reset to clear
after it is protected by AUTH TLS. This is simply not permitted.

The obstacle I'm dealing with is connecting to a secure FTP server
through our router. I'm behind a Linksys router which for some reason
doesn't like to read encrypted packets.

Here's what I tried with a newly-compiled CKERMIT 8.12:

set ftp autoencryption off
set ftp authtype ssl
set ftp command-protection-level clear
ftp ###.###.###.### /user:##### /password:#####

It responds with:
Connected to ###.###.###.###
SSL accepted as authentication type

....then the self-signed certificate issue discussed in the other
thread, but not a crisis at this time.

The issue is a SHOW FTP returning:

Available security methods:

ftp authtype: SSL
ftp auto-encryption: off
ftp credential-forwarding: off
ftp command-protection-level: safe
ftp data-protection-level: private
ftp secure proxy: (not set)

How come when I set the command-protection-level to clear, it connects
as safe? Is this dictated by the server?
