vsftpd 2.1.2 Ranking & Summary
vsftpd 2.1.2 description
Recent evidence shows that vsftpd is also extremely fast and scalable. vsftpd has achieved ~4000 concurrent users on a single machine, in a production environment.
If your main requirement from an FTP server is one of the following things then yes, vsftpd is probably the FTP server you are looking for:
- Security
- Performance
- Stability
The only reason you might prefer a different FTP server to vsftpd is if you really need the configurability of one of the more bloated FTP servers. Having said this, note that vsftpd caters for the vast majority of use cases.
Even if vsftpd appears to be missing a feature, it is often satisfied by an external component such as PAM or xinetd / tcp_wrappers. In this regard, vsftpd is being a small modular component in the proper spirit of UNIX. Finally, consider moving to vsftpd even if it means sacrificing some whacky feature of your current FTP server. The security, performance and stability gains are waiting for you.
Major Features:
- Virtual IP configurations
- Virtual users
- Standalone or inetd operation
- Powerful per-user configurability
- Bandwidth throttling
- Per-source-IP configurability
- Per-source-IP limits
- IPv6
- Encryption support through SSL integration
Enhancements:
- vsftpd-2.1.2 is released - with a couple of regression fixes. SSL support was fixed so that the data connection timeout does not fire incorrectly, and the bandwidth limiter is applied consistently. An absent per-user config file no longer fails a login (as per v2.0.7 and earlier). The build was fixed for various systems such as Ubuntu 9.04. Note that v2.1.2 is the same as v2.1.1 but with a compile fix for users with libcap-devel installed. . Please refer to the v2.1.2 Changelog and vsftpd FAQ (frequently asked questions) for a list of common questions!
