RE: anonymous user

Hello, thanks for your reply.  I don't have the command ftpconfig.  I've
looked for it in the Debian packages, but I've not been able to find it.
I'm not sure how to create the "ftp" account in /etc/passwd.  Currently
there are a lot of colons, numbers, and /bin/bash(or sync, or sh).  No
ftp anywhere, though.  Can you give me some details as to how to
manually add this?
