Dear Tyson, I would recommend vsftpd. It's a nice small ftp server that has always worked well for me. It is packaged in debian and the man page "vsftpd.conf" should contain everything you need to configure it for your needs. There are many other ftp daemons packaged for debian. If vsftpd does not offer you what you need you could try pureftpd and proftpd which seem to be more "feature rich". I hope this helps you. -David Mattli
