Thanks Mark!
I tried getting anonftp installed but it complained that it wanted wu-ftp
installed also. I installed both of them but they complained about
conflicts with proftpd; I uninstalled them again and took a look at proftpd
and found out that I could get it do exactly what I wanted it to. I just
had to add a couple of lines to my existing /etc/proftpd.conf file and
viola!
Thanks again for your help! I wouldn't have found out about proftpd if I
hadn't installed the other two packages.
Mike

Hi Mike,
The first thing you want to do is make sure you have the package anonftp
installed on your system.
rpm -qa | grep anonftp
If you do you will get a response from your system that looks like this;
anonftp-3.0-14mdk
The next thing you will want to do is read and follow very carefully the
instructions that I've sent along. this is what I used to configure and
get going my anonymous ftp. If you have any troubles please feel free to
email me.
