FTP Server

[SilverTorch]

Could anyone suggest a good FTP Server program?

I'm using Serv-U now, and its messing up, its telling me that my HOME directory does not exist (which I know it does, I made it). So I think its time for a new FTP Server.

Any suggestions?

I've heard that BulletProof FTP Server is decent.

Sorry for being picky, any good FTP Servers that are free?

Ah, I use War FTP Daemon myself, but it can be a little difficult to get running under XP as a service. Or at least it gave me problems a year ago when I installed it, maybe things have changed. Anyway, it's free and I'm happy with it overall.

I use Proftpd. It is a bit difficult to set up, however I really like it a lot since its extremely configurable and pretty stable (compared to most other FTP servers at least). I used to run Servu 2.5, but I got rid of it several months back.

Pure-FTPd

Pure-FTPd is actively supported, and it was always designed with security in mind, and the code is always re-audited as new kind of vulnerabilities are discussed.

Unlike other popular FTP servers, the number of root exploits found since the very first released version is zero.

I've used WAR-FTP for years until somebody hacked it... its a pretty old prog anyway.... hear goodthings about filezilla.... really good things.... actually was on TechTV screensavers not too long ago....
Been using the client version for a while now... and all i can say is thumbs up....

It might not be free, but BulletProof FTP Server (formerly G6) is my favorite on the Windows side.
