I did read that, but it does not address the question of proftpd being "a mess" and it only mentions proftpd in passing. On Thursday 29 November 2001 09:17 pm, Mauricio Latorre wrote:

Somewhere on this list in the last few days someone said proftpd was "a mess" but never said why, or wether this "mess" was security related.

Could the poster elaborate please??

And VSFTPD?? Any opinions on that one? -- _________________________________ John Andersen / Juneau Alaska
