I am wanting to setup an FTP server on my box to transfer files between
myself and a few friends as my provider "Cableamerica" finds it neccesary to
block Gnutella clients wether they be windows or Linux based. I have never
really setup FTP services on Linux before and would like some opinions in
regards to ease of configuration and general setup issues, perhaps a
preffered server? I have Mandrake 8.1 installed and I know it has ProFTPd and
perhaps one or two other FTP servers available on the CD's. I plan to set the
accounts with authorization and not use any anonymous logins to try and offer
as much security as possible.
