before calling something secure, i would suggest picking up a coding 
tutorial... that extremeftpd looks... well.. horrible (it is (if possible) 
worse than raveftpd)

msg.c is the same "stupidity" all over again, it used to be: 
len = vsnprintf (buf, strlen(buf),"%s", bla);
buf[len] = '\0';

and much more!

and you suggest we should trust THAT software is secure??? get real!

pretty neat tough... i informed them about a dozen bugs in their ftp daemon, 
and NO appreciation at all...

this means, i'm not gonna disclose any bugs i find (believe me, this was just 
the beginning, there is absolutely no reason to use rosiello software... more 
holes than cheddar cheese ;))
