It is probably just as well to remember that the text for objective
212.2 says

| Candidates should be able to configure an FTP server for anonymous
| downloads and uploads. This objective includes precautions to be taken
| if anonymous uploads are permitted and configuring user access.

This seems to suggest that there is little call for compile-time options
such as

>> --with-extauth
>> --with-ldap
>> --with-mysql
>> --with-pgsql
>> --with-nonroot
>> --with-pam
>> --with-puredb
>> --with-quotas

or for that matter many if not most of the command-line options. In fact
we could probably do with half a dozen options or so (-e, -i, -s, -k and
possibly -a or -A come to mind), and shouldn't need to bother with
compile-time options at all (the objective currently stipulates
specifically the command-line options, not compile-time options, of
Pure-FTPd).

Of course if we wanted to examine candidates on the configuration and
use of Pure-FTPd as a general FTP server, something closer to the full
list might be more to the point, but then this objective shouldn't hide
under “Security” and be called “Securing FTP Servers” – it should be its
own topic.
