Hi,

 

I am trying to setup a basic ftp server. I was just looking at the available packages.

 

There seem to be two popular ones:

 

ProFTP

 

VSFTP

 

Does anyone know which one is best to use and easiest to setup?

 

Cheer,

vsftp is more basic, and is generally used for anonymous ftp servers as it doesn't have features like virtual ftp users (people being able to login without having a full unix account). Probably simpler to set up.

 

proftp has every feature you can imagine (afaik)
