Question Which FTP daemon should I use?


Hi

I'm having trouble with my SuSE box. I need to get FTP configured on there ASAP, but things just don't seem to be working for me.

I've tried PureFTPd and ProFTPd with no luck. I need something I can just put on, will work "as is", and will let me change the config quickly and easily (GUI front-end would be nice).

Can anyone make any suggestions?

i recommend the vsftpd (very secure ftp deamon) it should be included on the SuSE -(CD/DVD).
I don't know if there is configuration gui out there, but the vsftpd is very simple to configure.

PureFTPd
PureFTPd Gui 1
PureFTPd GUI 2

ProFTPd
ProFTPd GUI

WU-FTPd

I would recommend vsFTPd too.

Probably the most secure and fastest FTP server for UNIX-like systems.
...and like "Quis" wrote, it's very easy to configure.

Cheers, Boby!
