Hello Speakup, I installed VSFTPD as I believe it to be better than PROFTPD. I created a conf file and was able to start it. When I point telnet to it, it appears that nothing is listening to port 21. FTP clients give a cannot connect error. According to the Debian readme I am suppose to have capability support in my kernel. I can't find anything about that in my kernel .conf file. What are they trying to tell me? When I check the log files, it doesn't even create a /var/log/vsftpd log. There is nothing in syslog about possible error messages either. -- Best regards, Rejean mailto:rejean at interfree.ca Skype id: rproulx msn: rejean at interfree.ca
