Michele - Listen to your inner voice :-)
If simple is all you want, try twisted. You can use mktap to create a simple ftp server and be ready to serve in a few minutes. And if you are upto it, get buried in the documents and you can customize your ftp server. If you are looking for something simpler but not asynchronous, I found this at the Vault called pyFTPDrop, which is aimed at *NIX. http://www.mythi.cx/python/pyFTPdrop.py / Thank you, --Kartic PS: I am sure Medusa is fairly straightforward too, but I have no experience with it. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
