ProVide Server is a Windows-based multi-protocol FTP, SFTP, TFTP and HTTP file server. It allows files to be shared over the Internet via unencrypted protocols like FTP and TFTP or securely via FTPS, SFTP, or HTTPS. Using a built-in web service the software allow for file management without requiring pre-installed FTP/SFTP client software. ProVide Server FeaturesProVide Server is a Windows-based file server. Its main features are:
HistoryBack in 2000 the original developer, Nicklas Bergfeldt, searched for an FTP server for his home network, but he found that none of the existing servers had all the features he wanted. After realising this he soon started to code a FTP server of his own. First it was only meant to be used by himself, but he later let his friends use it as well. He begun coding the fundamental framework first, this includes the virtual file system and the user/group management. The first internal version of zFTPServer was created in 2002.[1]. In 2003 one of the major Swedish computer papers, DatorMagazin[2], announced a code contest. The first price winner received a rather pricy laptop. The contest required a Swedish translation, some kind of documentation and an installation program. Bergfeldt saw this as an opportunity to lift his program to the next level and make it ready for a broader audience. Bergfeldt was awarded the first place prize for zFTPServer Suite.[3] During the time from the contest was announced to the time the prize was delivered, the laptop has dropped significantly in price. Bergfeldt successfully argued that he should receive a laptop that was as expensive as the original laptop was when the contest was announced. Winning the contest resulted in that a lot of users tested zFTPServer Suite. And, as zFTPServer Suite web page ran on Bergfeldt's home web server over an ADSL-connection, things started to get a little bit slow. In addition to this the application downloaded auto-updates from his web server. As neither his Internet connection nor his server was designed for this load he effectively DDOSed himself. As zFTPServer Suite grew more popular, it was no longer possible to serve it from his home server. At that time he asked the university[4] for which he worked to host it, which they did for several years. In 2007 Bergfeldt ended his employment in the university to form the IT consultant company Västgöta-Data. Bergfeldt now works as Technical Officer of Västgöta-Data, and is still the lead developer of zFTPServer Suite (now named ProVide Server). Today ProVide Server features FTP / FTPS / SFTP / TFTP / HTTPS support, Windows Active Directory authentication, virtual directories, and more. ProVide is an aggressively developed product and new versions are released regularly with fixes and new features[5] See also
