Hi there,
I have configured my freebsd machine with ftp access.
However, I have a feeling that it is not very secure.
When I set it up with the default settings I see the
/etc/ folder and it has a passwd file in it.
Are there any documents available on securing FTP?
I can't seem to find it on the freebsd website.
Cheers
