Don't mean to be digressing anymore from "apache" mailinglist and
request to end this discussion about search for opensource ftp server
for windows by saying, I don't know of one and also proftpd doesn't seem
support M$ windoze. http://www.proftpd.org/features.html
Please try some ftp or windoz mailinglist for a good answer to your search.
Thanks

Thanks for the security links Aman I will check those out.
One other thing, I am looking for an ftp server to replace the one that
comes with IIS, is there a commonly used open source one, the
equivalent of
apache for http. I have looked on several open source software
directories but nothing stands
out.
Thanks

Hello,

Isn't it possible to compress images any further?
Try to compress 100Mb of JPEG pictures and see for yourself.
I guess I am not really sure what I am asking when it comes to
security, I
have setup an apache server running parallel to my current IIS
server but
on
port 8080. I want to switch them over but I would like to be sure
that the
instillation
is secure, are there any problems with apache that I need to be worried
about? Are there any patches / configuration setups that need to be
applied?
What's the point in releasing stable versions if they need to be
patched further...
No, there isn't. Security issues raise from insecure (php, perl, ...)
scripts and wrong permissions. If you merely deliver HTML files, and
process nothing server-side (such as cgi or aforementioned scripts)
then there is not much to do. It depends a lot on the distribution
you use, too. But this list is no place for distro flames.
Arthur -
I have been using ProFTPd for quite a while now. It has an
"apache-like" configuration file, meaning, it's broken down into
directives and such. It's very nice, and I'm sure that many people
here will also agree.
More info can be found at www.proftpd.org.
Thanks!
