SME Server Update Notification
2010-11-13
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name        : proftpd
Product     : SME 7
Version     : 1.3.3c
Release     : 1.el4
URL         : [http://www.proftpd.org/]
Summary     : Flexible, stable and highly-configurable FTP server
Description :
ProFTPD is an enhanced FTP server with a focus toward simplicity, security,
and ease of configuration. It features a very Apache-like configuration
syntax, and a highly customizable server infrastructure, including support for
multiple 'virtual' FTP servers, anonymous FTP, and permission-based directory
visibility.

This package defaults to the standalone behavior of ProFTPD, but all the
needed scripts to have it run by xinetd instead are included.
