I use it on all my servers, it's only 49.99 for a 50-user license, unlimited is like 199 i think, have to check on that. It does not run out of inetd (which is nice), has its own logging facility (Which can be tied to syslog), allows for virtual users as well so you could setup users w/o shells or give users different ftp passwords. It supports all the usual stuff, /etc/shells, ftpuser, etc. It's configuration also allows for multiple domains hosted on the same server think vhosting of websites it's similar to that. the domain is www.ncftp.com oh yeah it's free for personal use (3 or more sim. users). > > -- > Richard Martin dmartin@origen.com > > > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
