Free ftp server ubuntu software for linux

Pure FTP Server is a fast, production quality, standards-conformant FTP server based on Troll-FTPd. Pure FTP Server has no known vulnerability, it is trivial to set up, and it is especially designed for modern kernels.
Features include PAM support, IPv6, chroot()ed home directories, virtual domains, built-in ls, FXP protocol, anti-warez system, bandwidth throttling, restricted ports for passive downloads, an LDAP backend, XML output, and more.
Beginners can install a Pure-FTPd server in 5 minutes. It can be as simple as installing the package, typing "pure-ftpd &" and... thats all. You already have a running server, and clients can start to connect.
Theres no need to review any long and complex configuration file, where possible mistakes could have security and reliability implications. Pure-FTPd uses simple command-line switches to enable the features you need.
You can limit the number of simultaneous users, limit their bandwidth to avoid starving your ADSL or cable-modem link, hide system files (chroot), have upload/download ratios, and moderate new uploads.
Custom messages can be displayed at login-time (even changing fortune files) and when an user enters a new directory. Also, to avoid your disks being filled up, you can defined a maximal percentage, and new uploads will be disallowed once this percentage is reached.
The FXP (server-to-server) protocol is implemented. It can be available for everyone, or only for authenticated users.
Kiddies are using common brute-forcing tools that are trying to discover hidden directories. Pure-FTPd provides a protection against this. Anonymous access is secure by default. For instance, users cant access dot-files (.bash_history, .rhosts, ...) unless you explicitely enable this.
And to watch whos doing what, the pure-ftpwho command shows a table with currently active sessions, how much bandwidth is taken by every user, what files they are uploading or downloading, where they are coming from, etc.
Enhancements:
- User names can now be up to 127 characters long.
- Compilation with PAM support has been fixed on Mac OS X, and the MySQL PASSWORD() function can now be used with MySQL >= 4.1.
- Logging now has the correct timezone.
- Support for charset conversions (RFC2640) has been implemented. Large files are now handled by default, using sendfile64() if possible. SITE UTIME and OPTS MLST have been implemented.
- MySQL queries can now include multiple statements and call MySQL 5 stored procedures.
- Transferring a lot of small files is now much faster than in previous versions.

lftpsearch is a set of Perl scripts that are searching for files and directories on FTP servers. There is the searcher, the indexer for getting the lists of all the files and directories at remote FTP servers, and the onliner for checking whether FTP servers are online.

It supports (or >) and in search queries, page splitting at search results, searching on online servers only, searching for files/directories only, searching for size limited files, caching, and Russian names.

lftpsearch program also shows some statistics on servers (files/directories amount, total size). Initially, it was created to be used over LANs.

ftpcluster provides a system which integrates several FTP servers into one.
ftpcluster integrates a number of individual FTP servers into a single large server. You can think of it as a network disk array with FTP as the access protocol.
Main features:
- FTP protocol
ftpcluster speaks enough FTP to upload, download, delete and rename files. You can also create, delete and rename directories.
- The cluster is working
Files can be distributed over your cluster nodes. ftpcluster knows how to handle files on your nodes.
- Replication
Files can be replicated to two or more node for fail-over situations.
- User authentication
Version 1.0.3: Users must authenticate against a local password file. Password are actually stored in cleartext.
- Filenames
Version 1.0.3: Filenames are not limited to a certain set of characters. Theres optional support for blanks and/or arbitrary characters in filenames. You can however restrict your users to usual UNIX filename conventions.
- Partial support for FTP REST command
Version 1.0.7: The cluster supports the REST command for downloads, for uploads only if the file is stored on the cluster.
- System checker
Since version 1.0.9 there are programs to check and repair cluster nodes.
Enhancements:
- Programs to check and repair the cluster were added.
- The FXP configuration documentation was started.

Chestnut FTP Search is a web application to search for files on FTP servers. Files can by searched only by file/directory names, nor be file contents. Users can query files by part of the file name, the entire file name, a regular expression, or a shell pattern.
The program is written in Python using web.py framework. To store file indexes PostgreSQL or MySQL is use.
Main features:
- Four search modes: partial match, exact match, regular expression, shell pattern. Every mode can by case sensitive or case insensitive
- Character set can by specified for particular server to allow non ASCII file names.
- Multi-threaded indexer

Ubuntu Linux is a complete desktop Linux operating system, freely available with both community and professional support.

The Ubuntu team is proud to announce Ubuntu 5.10 Server, the first release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments.

Like the standard desktop Ubuntu, it occupies a single CD. However, it is distinguished by the following features:

* Includes server-oriented kernels with out-of-the-box automatic support for multiprocessor systems
* Includes a wide variety of popular server applications such as apache, mysql, postgresql, php, zope, openldap, bind, samba, all on the single CD, ready for installation
* A slim default installation, occupying just 400 megabytes: add only the software you need, for a clean, maintainable configuration.
* Provides no desktop environment (GNOME, KDE, etc.) by default
* Safe and text-oriented boot mode for better clarity and infinite justice on boot.

The default installation is secure by design, with no network ports active after installation and access to free security updates activated. Network services are activated only when explicitly installed.

As always, its supported with regular releases, a commitment to security updates for 18 months after each release and professional technical support from many companies around the world.
