Re: [sentinix-list] Pure-FTP and Apache

No root SSH login, no root FTP login (it's insecure)... create an 
"un-privileged" account instead.

FTP root login is *beyond* just insecure, as it's plain text!!!

Either use a regular account for ftp or create a virtual account!
Read the pure-ftpd docs on how to do this... see their website!

Huh??
Reboot helps??  Linux is not Windows, as you probably know ;)
You've done some bad config somewhere. Check the logs!

It's not the latest, but it works just the same (0.70.5 is the latest).
