Name : proftpd
Product : Fedora 15
Version : 1.3.4a
Release : 7.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 update fixes an issue where each reload of the server configuration (e.g. when the logs are rotated) would use up a file descriptor, eventually resulting in running out of file descriptors.
