get PROftpd

http://www.proftpd.net/

it sports a config file that's similar to apache's and it can authenticate
users from a MySQL database.

people on the mailing list that use it seem to really like it (not unlike
responses you see on the Mandrake list). I posted a question "what are the
pros and cons of PROftpd" and got some good answers from users.

search the archive on "ProFTPD vs. others"
