ubuntu下好用的FTP服务器软件：Proftpd＋gproftpd

以前听说Vsftpd（very secure ftp daemon)安全，功能强大，就给实验室服务器装上vsftpd了。但全是命令行配置，时常会因一点微小的配置而不能工作，很是麻烦。虽然实验室服务器 的Vsftpd还能战战兢兢的工作，但存在很多让人头疼的问题。比如权限分配、读写等问题，我用用户配置文件很难解决，只好在系统里添加了帐户，让 vsftpd使用。
后来偶尔在Ubuntu的新的立软件包管理（Synaptic Package Manager）里看到proftpd和gproftpd,说明分别如下：

1. proftpd:
Versatile, virtual-hosting FTP daemon
A powerful replacement for wu-ftpd, this File Transfer Protocol
daemon supports hidden directories, virtual hosts, and per-directory
".ftpaccess" files.  It uses a single main configuration file, with a
syntax similar to Apache.

Because of the advanced design, anonymous-FTP directories can have
an arbitrary internal structure (bin, lib, etc, and special files are
not needed).  Advanced features like multiple password files and
upload/download ratios are also supported.

This package contains most of the core and contributed modules of
proftpd.

2. gproftpd：
GTK+ configuration tool for proftpd
GProftpd is a fast and easy to use GTK+ administration tool for the Proftpd
standalone server.

GProftpd with Proftpd gives admins easy access to virtual hosting, 8 layers of
security including chrooted users and encrypted transfers on both the data and/
or control channels.

才 发现proftpd有个可视化的配置软件gproftpd，于是就在新的立软件包管理选中，安装。安装完后在System-> Administration出现GPROFTPD，打开即是。然后就可以可视化配置了。我添加了anonymous用户，其他用户等测试了一下，很是好 用。是在是太好了，推荐大家使用。
