    Hi,

    Is is possible to get uftp => uftpd without register messages?

    I would like to transfer files over a one way satellite DVB system, which prevents ack/register messages.

    Thanks for your feedback on this,
    David

    David,

    Unfortunately, UFTP does not work over a one way link. The reliability mechanisms require a back channel. Feedback doesn't need to travel over the same link as the data, however. If you have a separate low speed link, you can use that as a back channel. The -R option to the client (i.e. receiver) can facilitate this.

    Regards,
    Dennis
