Earlier today, Robert was kind enough to post his documented process of setting up a secure FTP server using VSFTPD (as several of us requested it, if he was so inclined to share.) He had posted it, but it soon seamed that a few people had missed his post. Rather than see several re-post's of his very detailed documentation make it back onto the list, I took it upon myself to post it at my website and submitted a post with the link. After I did this, I received a message from Robert that made me feel like I had offended him (as I had not sought his permission to do so). I would like to publically apologize to Robert for jumping the gun. But to make it worse, I totally got his name wrong in that post! I really felt bad after he pointed that out to me:) It is not often that you come across a well documented process such as his (especially for vsftpd), and I felt it was to valuable to lose to the bit bucket if I did not take steps to preserve it. Anyway, I had removed the link because I did not want to continue with any offence (though Robert had indicated that there were no hard feelings.) But the damage had been done, I received a few emails and saw a few posts that the link was down. I have since received permission from Robert to post it back up, so the link to his really well documented process is once again back on-line at http://www.daters.net/howto/vsftpd.txt. Thanks again Robert for sharing your hard work with us. Kind Regards, Craig D. --- Craig Daters (craig@xxxxxxxxxxxxx) Systems Administrator West Press Printing & Copying 1663 W. Grant Rd.
