Service component |
Bug status |
Feature status |
---|---|---|
System wide |
No known bugs |
There are planned but not implemented features to start/stop services or component without IPS restart. |
FTPd |
No known bugs |
No planned features are missing |
HTTPd |
N/A |
Not supposed to be feature rich, still playing with the idea wether or not the HTTPd should be a part of IPS. |
IMAP4d |
N/A |
IMAP4 support is planned, but probably not for version 1.0 of IPS. |
POP3d |
No known bugs |
Basic POP3 features in place, no planned features are missing. |
SMTPd |
No known bugs |
Very basic implementation. SMTP receive is quite ok, but SMTP send is far from complete. Missing features due to incomplete DNS implementation. |
