FTP Servers?

Hello,

I am looking for an open source FTP Server. I have used PureFtpd before and heard about vsFtpd and Proftpd.

My problem is that everything seems to have been stopped development. The only open source ftp server i found that has a 2014 update was ProFtpd and it was done in May.

So wondering what you guys used that it is in development and open sourced?

Thanks for the info.
PS: If not i ll go to what i know, PureFtpd.

Thanks again

What's wrong with a server that does everything it's designed to do? As long as there are no unpatched security issues or major bugs, why must a new version be released every few months? Personally I wish they had stopped development on Thunderbird like 10 releases ago

If it does everything you want it to do I'd just go with what you know.

vsftpd here. I'm not aware of any issues with it. It's fast and easy to configure.

Same here. No frills, solid, dependable. Why do you think constant action = better product?
oops, replied to wrong person.

I use vsFtpd and it's just fine. No need to have bleeding edge software for something that's been done and done again.

vsftpd on my server as well. It works, is reliable and secure. As a bonus, it uses little resources to get its job done.
