See http://www.proftpd.net http://www.proftpd.net/docs/ http://pdd.sourceforge.net/faq/proftpdfaq.html I used the CVS ( current version system ) their last stable version I got in Aug., had a bug which did not allow anonymous login in stand-alone I would guess it's been fixed now, see the bugs page. It's configured like apache, VIA /etc/proftp.conf Their site has some examples, like Basic Anonymous Virtual hosts Complex Virtual and you can get stats with Webalizer and ftpweblog you can hide dirs on your root dir # Hide bin etc lib from anonymous HideGroup root HideGroup root HideGroup root plus limit write, then allow where you want to # Limit WRITE everywhere in the anonymous chroot except incoming DenyAll For paranoid customers who don't want others to get their files # Grant WRITE (with STOR) Limit Read (with READ) in incoming DenyAll AllowAll I started using proftpd in Mar 99 after wuftpd was hacked into VIA script kiddies the people on this list, Brian Cluff as I remember, helped me see what was happening to the system On Thu, 19 Apr 101, Don Harrop wrote: > Do you have any good referance documentation on ProFTPd.
