I am pleased to announce the availability of gFTP 2.0.18. Here is a
summarized list of changes since version 2.0.18rc1. For a full list of changes,
please see the ChangeLog file that is included with the source distribution.

* Added support for the FSP protocol (http://fsp.sourceforge.net/)
* SSH2: Fixed segfault that could occur when renaming a file (bug introduced
  in 2.0.18rc1)
* SSH2: Fixes for parsing the directory listing from the commercial SSH server
* FTP: added pasv_behind_router option. If this is enabled, then the IP
  address that is in the PASV response will be ignored. Instead the IP
  address of the remote host will be used
* FTP: removed the quote filename functionality in the SITE CHMOD and
  SITE UTIME commands
* Chmod: Fixes for setting the group execute bit (bug introduced in 2.0.18rc1)
* Fixes so that the text port will prompt you for your password when a URL is
  entered on the command line
* In the text port, convert the string from UTF8 to the users' current locale
  before it is displayed
* Fixes for when the host system does not have getaddrinfo() (bug introduced in
  2.0.18rc1)
* Rewrote and improved the URL parser so that the :, @ characters are allowed
  in directories and passwords
* Security Fix: Ignore the file paths that are returned by the remote server
* FreeBSD and HP/UX fixes
* GNOME HIG fixes
* Many other small changes and improvements. See the ChangeLog file in the
  distribution for a detailed list of changes.
