Subject: Req: FTP server options


To start off, let me say that I understand that SCP and SFTP is the way to
go.  Knowing that, I am looking for some FTP server options running under
*nix that do not pose some of the vulnerabilities that wu-ftp has shown over
the past years.  I have had no issues with ncftpd or vsftpd, but I am
looking for suggestions.  The server will need to be relatively exploit
free, run under Solaris/AIX/Linux/HP-UX, and cheaper is better (and free is
awesome).  I am relatively new to the Bugtraq groups and I am still
researching the archives, but I thought this group could point in some good
directions.  Given the FTP servers out there, which is the most recommended
and why?  Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
