If it was up to me no daemons (big network daemons) would be in the base system (well no daemon for FTP, SMTP, but syslogd should be there as there is no good alternatives). But we have a ftpd in the base system (and sadly sendmail is also there), so why aren't there a mod_ssl for ftpd? Bwt, what is the difference between SSL and TLS, and if I were to make a ftpd which one should I chose and where can I find a SSL/TLS programming tutorial.
