[Sunhelp] sun ftp

[Thomas Reagan]

Ramon,

Based on the relative inflexibility of the included ftp server, it's lack of
options, it's poor performance, and (especially to mind) it's history of
security flaws, I have never met a Solaris admin who keeps the included ftp
server unless it is for very basic ftp services.  I find the security
history an especially glaring problem, but, again, that is just me.

You might want to look at http://fixsolaris.sunhelp.org/ for other tuning
tips.

Where can I get more information on the ftpd server shipped with
solaris2.6. I am trying to setup rules for users such as those used by
wu-ftpd.

Is the ftpd server that is shipped with solaris adequate for use or should
I install another ftp server?

Thanks,
ramon.
