Well, first of all I wouldn't use wu_ftpd. Redhat has (finally!) switched to vsftpd, which is likely to be a good deal more secure. I would try installing yum, available from http://linux.duke.edu/projects/yum/ -- and using it to install whatever it is you're looking for. It also does a nice job of auto-updating. Yum is the default updater in Fedora Linux, and is a good deal more robust than another, older product known as apt-rpm. This is something I cover in my classes. If you want more info, feel free to contact me. You might (or might not) also find my lecture slides useful. They're at http://www.peak.org/~mountainman/classnotes/3372/ClassNotes.html in the lecture notes for Session 2, towards the end. I also have an extra copy of the "RedHat's RPM Guide" (ISBN 0-7645-4965-0) that I'd be willing to trade for something nice, such as an AMD 550 processor.
