• Legacy-heavy

Dependencies

• file management permissions

Database Tables

Agent Interaction

• FTP manager helpers through lib_remote.php

User Workflow

• receive FTP credentials
• upload/download files through FTP client software

Admin Workflow

• configure FTP access behavior
• manage permissions

Security Concerns

• credentials
• root/path exposure
• embedded legacy net2ftp code

Known Issues

• old embedded FTP UI stack
• security review needed

Missing Functionality

• cleaner modern FTP/SFTP guidance
• clear boundary to protect agent/control files

Suggested Future Improvements

• keep FTP as an advanced access path
