I would like to get some advice in choosing an ftp server that should provide anonymous login. As far as I know there is wuftpd and proftpd. If I search the archives of this list of the last months it looks like people are using proftp more often than wuftp. However, I read in de linux manuals that wuftp is suse's default ftp server. Hopefully you have the advice in choosing either one.... -- Thanks in advance! Richard Bos For those without home the journey is endless

It is really easy to install proftpd. Just install the package using Yast2, and set the START_PROFTPD value in rc-config to on. You might have to enable the ftp service in inetd.conf or xinetd.conf, with the correct link. The proftpd package contains several configuration exemples, including one for an anonymous ftp. Overall it's very good and looks a lot like Apache. Best regards, David Garnier
