Dear sirs,
Could i bring your attention to this bug:
https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/pure-ftpd/+bug/34346
We are using pureftpd to provide FTP access for our customers, and
1.0.19 has some issues that make it impossible to use in a hosting
environment. More details in the bugreport, but for the impatient: One
of the main problems we've been encountering is that connections just
drop while uploading/downloading data to/from the server. The other
issue is the very low transfer rates while sending/receiving data. Both
issues are fixed in the latest pureftpd version. I know 1.0.21 isn't in
debian yet either, but i'm more than willing to provide the deb &
deb-src for an 1.0.21 package that could then be used as a base for an
official dapper package. Since we'll be using it on our servers, i'll be
on the lookout for any possible regressions, and help out to fix those
too.
Thanks a lot for considering this!
Kind regards,
