Work with the vendor to fix things, or just pull everything off the vendor branch? Fine I'll do just that. > I am also very concerned regarding your changes to the warning message > I added to inetd.conf to suggest that the BSD ftpd be an alternate to > lukemftpd.

I felt for developer-relations reasons it should be reworded a little. I also thought shorter sentances was better. I don't know why you are affended that Lukemftpd be called an alternate ftpd. We have lots of alternat ftpd's that come bundled with FreeBSD -- wuftpd, proftpd, and ncftpd are two others. > Lukemftpd *cannot* be the suggested FTPd. Why?? It works fine for many and I've seen many installations use it that find the "regular" ftpd *way* too feature limited for any ftp site on the naked Internet.
