Overview

Handle the limited processing of Telnet sequences required by the FTP RFCs.

Telnet option processing is quite complex, but we need do only a simple subset of it, since we can disagree with any request by the client to turn on an option (RFC-1123 4.1.2.12). Adhering to RFC-1143 (“The Q Method of Implementing TELNET Option Negiation”), and supporting only what’s needed to keep all options turned off:

  • Reply to WILL sequence with DONT sequence

  • Reply to DO sequence with WONT sequence

  • Ignore WONT sequence

  • Ignore DONT sequence

We also handle the “interrupt process” and “data mark” sequences, which the client sends before the ABORT command, by ignoring them.

All Telnet sequence start with an IAC, followed by at least one character. Here are the sequences we care about:

SEQUENCE             CODES
-----------------    --------------------
WILL                 IAC WILL option-code
WONT                 IAC WONT option-code
DO                   IAC DO option-code
DONT                 IAC DONT option-code
escaped 255          IAC IAC
interrupt process    IAC IP
data mark            IAC DM

Any pathalogical sequence (e.g. IAC + x01), or any sequence we don’t recognize, we pass through.
