New package: pure-ftpd-1.0.21-1

New package "pure-ftpd-1.0.21-1" has been
uploaded.

Pure-FTPd is a fast, secure, production-quality
and standard-conformant FTP server. It doesn't provide
useless
bells and whistles, but focuses on efficiency and ease of
use.

Port Notes:

Install pure-ftpd as a NT service using the following
command:

    cygrunsrv -I pure-ftpd -d "CYGWIN pure-ftpd"
-p /usr/sbin/pure-ftpd.exe

Pure-ftpd does not use a configuration file but can be
configured using
command-line arguments. For example if you want all users to
be chrooted
to their home directories, you could use '-A' option, like
this:

    cygrunsrv -I pure-ftpd -d "CYGWIN pure-ftpd"

              -p /usr/sbin/pure-ftpd.exe -a -A

Start the service using the following command:

    net start pure-ftpd

On Windows XP you can run pure-ftpd service under Local
System account;
on Windows 2003 Server you need a special user such as the
one created by
ssh-host-config script. If you change service logon account,
don't
forget to delete /var/run/pure-* and /var/log/pure-* because
otherwise
pure-ftpd won't be able to open them after restart.

The cygwin port has been built using the following
configuration:

    ./configure --with-everything --with-rfc2640
--with-largefile

Standard 'unix' authentication is supported in this build
and is the
default auth type.

To enable anonymous ftp, you should create a local user
'ftp' and
regenerate your /etc/passwd file (man mkpasswd/mkgroup).

If you want to use pure-uploadscript, you can also run it as
a Windows
service similar to pure-ftpd.

For more information about this package, see the upstream
documentation in
/usr/share/doc/pure-ftpd-1.0.21.
