Does anyone have any suggestions/preferences to a secure FTP server for |
| 2 |
Gentoo? |

My 55+ year old father-in-law wants to start learning building websites. |
| 5 |
I am having him install Nvu and want to setup ftp to my web server and |
| 6 |
give him his own directory to play with. |

I have never had a need for ftp since I have always used ssh. However, |
| 9 |
I want to make it as easy as possible for him to learn web page design, |
| 10 |
so that is why I thought ftp would be the easiest and most supported by |
| 11 |
tools. He uses winXP and I think Nvu can publish to ftp. If he really |
| 12 |
gets into building websites, he wants to purchase something like |
| 13 |
dreamweaver. |

>From my perspective, I don't want an ftp server that will allow someone |
| 16 |
to get in to my gentoo box by brute forcing a username and password. I |
| 17 |
guess I can install something like denyhosts if the ftp server uses tcp |
| 18 |
wrappers. |

Thanks for any guidance, |
