Hi
well it depends.
If you are using a client and it has a command rm in it. It will only delete
the up to the
point where it stops iirc the DELE ftp command will only take 1 arg
If you were to use SITE rm and execut rm and you loose the connection.
a) if you loose it will a reset and ftpd gets killed the rm should be killed
off as well
b) if you loose routing and there is no way for ftpd to know its lost its
connection
the chances are it will keep executing until the buffers fill up between
rm -> ftpd -> inet sockets
then stop.
