IIS's FTP is an excellent, secure FTP server. I don't know of any
exploits against it ever other than one obscure client-side
cross-scripting type of attack that was never publicly exploited.

I've been running it for years and never a single problem.

Subject: ftp server windows

Does anyone know of a good ftp sever for windows with a good security
track record.  WS_FTP is out because of the last vuln where not only did
they not address the issue when it was posted on bugtraq but it took
them close to 3 weeks to come up with a patch.

I have been told about serv-u and bulletproof.  Are there any others
that I should be aware of (with a good history any can google ftp server
windows).

Thanks
