Name        : proftpd
Product     : Fedora 15
Version     : 1.3.4
Release     : 0.15.rc3.fc15
URL         : http://www.proftpd.org/
Summary     : Flexible, stable and highly-configurable FTP server
Description :
ProFTPD is an enhanced FTP server with a focus toward simplicity, security,
and ease of configuration. It features a very Apache-like configuration
syntax, and a highly customizable server infrastructure, including support for
multiple 'virtual' FTP servers, anonymous FTP, and permission-based directory
visibility.

This package defaults to the standalone behavior of ProFTPD, but all the
needed scripts to have it run by xinetd instead are included.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This is the latest release candidate for proftpd 1.3.4 from upstream, which rolls up many bug fixes.

Highlights include:

* The mod_ldap configuration directives have changed to a simplified version; please read the "Changes" section in README.LDAP for details
* Support for using RADIUS for authentication SSH2 logins, and for supporting the NAS-IPv6-Address RADIUS attribute
* <Limit WRITE> now prevents renaming/moving a file out of the limited directory
* ExtendedLog entries now written for data transfers that time out

It also includes a fix for mod_sql_mysql (Bug 718327).
