Corinna,

[I began to reply to this post on Friday, but I got distracted by
attempting to port vsFTPd to Cygwin.  This turned out to be a good
use of my time.  BTW, I never knew about vsFTPd.  I wish I did about a
month ago...]

I agree too, but it was worth a shot because...

I would consider the above, if I could get Cygwin ProFTPd to work!  I
spent *way* too much time about a month or two ago attempting to get
Cygwin ProFTPd to work.  Unfortunately, I was not successful and put the
port on the back burner.  I will post my patch and findings if someone
is interested or I get motivated.

However, I was successful porting vsFTPd to Cygwin with some caveats.  I
will start a separate thread to discuss these issues.  Please read this
post since I could use some help with a mmap()/fork() problem...

Thanks,
Jason
