Quick question on restricted file types

[Johnny5_Hull]

Hi guys....

 

I was just curious as to whether the restricted file types could be unrestricted on a user by user basis?

 

I have a couple of clients who develop mods, and whom I trust completely.

 

Is it possible to be able to lift the file restriction just for them, but leave it intact for others?

 

Any suggestions appreciated.

Not that I am aware of. But for these, you could always install another FTP server running on a different port and give them a login there.

Or just creat a FTP server in IIS.

 

Does TC use its own or IIS for FTP?

I smell a V2 option request as it was already on my list.

This would be handy

Thanks for the input guys...

 

I think that it would be a VERY welcome function of V2, would make life so much easier.

 

@DougK94 - Possible option, not sure if it would interfere with TCA'sbuilt in ftp client though? (Can anyone confirm?~)

 

@Cissam - See reply to Doug

 

If possible I think that it may well be the second ftp app, running on other port.

 

The other option is of course get the client to upload the file as a .dll.x and us rename it..... just a ball ache for us though.

As long as it is on a different port than TCAdmin's FTP server, then there is no problem. However you will not be able to use TCAdmin to create FTP accounts on this other FTP server.

 

I have done this for a couple of customers in the past.

It's possible to set up a SVN of some sort for this that'd probably work.
