Limagito FTPS Server released in version v2021.5.24.0
In version v2021.5.24.0 we released our Limagito FTPS Server. This FTPS server is a part of Limagito File Mover and available for all +Plus users (Free Lite+, Single+, Site+ and Corporate+).
FTPS Server Setup:
We added the possibility to choose between ‘SFTP’ or ‘FTPS’ vs ‘SFTP & FTPS’. Each much use their own port.
Implicit FTPS: default 990 (TLS encryption up to v1.3)
Explicit FTPS: default 21 (TLS encryption up to v1.3)
Plain FTP: default 21 (No encrypton)
FTPS Server User Accounts Setup:
An account can be used for ‘SFTP’ or ‘FTPS’ vs ‘SFTP & FTPS’.
FTPS Server Guard Setup:
The Guard protection will work for SFTP and FTPS.
FTPS Server Additional Setup:
We divided some of the SFTP options so they can have different values for FTPS.
Important if you want the FTPS server to support unicode characters then you must set the ‘FTPS Character Set’ option to ‘utf-8’.
IMPORTANT: When testing the FTPS Server using our Limagito File Mover you’ll need to select the Second API Vendor – CK.

Q&A 34: Rules pulling files are changing the modify date
Q: Rules pulling files are changing the modify date. Correct, this is FTP as the source. The file(s) we’re picking up have modification dates on when they were last modified on the source’s side. However, after LimagitoX runs, it updates the modification date in Windows to whenever the rule runs. So it shows all files were updated since last time the job ran.
For example, I ran the job at 9:17am on 12/23/20 and it shows that the file that is dated 05/07/20 (from the source) was last modified right when the job ran, but in reality it wasn’t modified by either party since 5/07/20.
A: Solution, in your Source FTP (or SFTP) setup, please enable ‘Adjust File Times’ option. You can find this in the ‘Common Tab’.
If you need any help with ‘changing the modify date’, please let us know.

Second FTP Vendor option was added in LimagitoX File Mover
A second FTP vendor was added in LimagitoX File Mover version v2020.9.2.0. This second FTP vendor is also based in the USA and has a long history with providing API’s for many internet protocols. The reason we did this is because there are quite some different FTP servers out there and it seems we couldn’t cover them all. With a second vendor we try to minimize this. The second FTP vendor supports TLS1.3 (Security Tab – Select ‘Automatically TLS’).
Switching can be done on the fly. Default is still the original vendor (Vendor 1 – SB) which we are using for quite some time now. This new option is available under the ‘Setup’ tab of your FTP setup. Feedback experience about using the new vendor would be much appreciated.
If you need any help , please let us know.
