Uh. Up2date certainly does NOT work with "any ole ftp-server" as it
requires the RHN backend server to do anything at all. Apt doesn't need
any special server running, any ftp/http server will do provided you
generate the indexes on the server first.

Not to get into apt vs up2date flaming here, just to straighten out the
