ubuntu下实用的FTP服务器软件:Proftpd+gproftpd

以前听说Vsftpd（very secure ftp daemon)安全，功能强大，就给实验室服务器装上vsftpd了。但全是命令行配置，时常会因一点微小的配置而不能工作，很是麻烦。虽然实验室服务器 的Vsftpd还能战战兢兢的工作，但存在很多让人头疼的问题。比如权限分配、读写等问题，我用用户配置文件很难解决，只好在系统里添加了帐户，让 vsftpd使用。

后来偶尔在Ubuntu的新的立软件包管理（Synaptic Package Manager）里看到proftpd和gproftpd,说明分别如下：

1. proftpd:

Versatile, virtual-hosting FTP daemon

A powerful replacement for wu-ftpd, this File Transfer Protocol

daemon supports hidden directories, virtual hosts, and per-directory

".ftpaccess" files.  It uses a single main configuration file, with a

syntax similar to Apache.

Because of the advanced design, anonymous-FTP directories can have

an arbitrary internal structure (bin, lib, etc, and special files are

not needed).  Advanced features like multiple password files and

upload/download ratios are also supported.

This package contains most of the core and contributed modules of

proftpd.
