I was thinking about it, yes, but discussion with others decided that two FTP servers was enough for Mandrake (I agree), and my preferred solution of removing wu-ftpd in favour of vsftpd was not well received. =) I could probably do something in the relatively near future and put it in contribs (unless you have a srpm already made?). Or, if that fails, at the very least put it on rpmhelp.net with qmail, djbdns, and others. -- MandrakeSoft Security; http://www.mandrakesecure.net/ "lynx -source http://www.freezer-burn.org/bios/vdanen.gpg | gpg --import" 1024D/FE6F2AFD 88D8 0D23 8D4B 3407 5BD7 66F9 2043 D0E5 FE6F 2AFD Current Linux kernel 2.4.18-6.4mdk uptime: 1 day 8 hours 27 minutes.
