 ProFTPd 1.3.2c
ProFTPD grew out of the desire to have a secure and configurable FTP
server, and out of a significant admiration of the Apache web server.
There are currently a very limited number of FTP servers running on Unix
(or Unix-like) hosts. The most commonly used server is wu-ftpd. While
wu-ftpd provides excellent performance and is generally a good product,
it lacks numerous features found in newer Win32 FTP servers and has a
poor security history. Many people, including the developers who work on
ProFTPD, have spent a great deal of time fixing bugs and hacking
features into wu-ftpd. Unfortunately, it quickly became clear that a
complete redesign was necessary in order to implement the
configurability and features desired. ProFTPD is not a hack based on any
other server, it's an independent source tree from the ground up. A
number of well known and high traffic sites use ProFTPD.
While ProFTPD should compile "out of the box" under Mac OS X, Fink includes ProFTPD in its distribution for OS X.
