RE: [Cooker] wu-ftpd exploit/package upgrade
I stumbled across the Linux port of the BSD ftpd. He's got SRPMs up for download. http://www.eleves.ens.fr:8080/home/madore/programs/#prog_ftpd-BSD Haven't used it, although I'm about to try it out.

ProFTPD is *much* nicer... ever since I started using it, it has worked flawlessly and the configuration is much more versatile than wu-ftpd.

It's much more robust, secure, the configuration file is great and just about anyone can work with it, and the options(directives) are endless. wu.ftpd is a dying beast, move on : ) -- Bryan Paxton "How should I know if it works?

If you want, visit ftp.freezer-burn.org/pub/custom/proftpd and you will find Mandrake RPMs for ProFTPD. Works awesome.

Re: [Cooker] wu-ftpd exploit/package upgrade
Can't we go with ProFTPD instead? Or even BSD FTPD. I don't particularly like wu.

No! *** 2.6 is still affected! You should react as fast as possible. Different ways of bugfixes were sent on bugtraq.

[Cooker] wu-ftpd exploit/package upgrade
I just thought I'd see if there was an upgrade planned for wu-ftpd, following the recent exploit that's all over BugTraq. Most of the other distros have responded, including Red Hat, but I haven't heard anything yet from the Mandrake front. Don Head Linux Mentor Wave Technologies, Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED]
