Pure-FTPd is a fast, secure, production-quality and standard-conformant FTP server. It doesn't provide useless bells and whistles, but focuses on efficiency and ease of use. Port Notes: Install pure-ftpd as a NT service using the following command: cygrunsrv -I pure-ftpd -d "CYGWIN pure-ftpd" -p /usr/sbin/pure-ftpd.exe Pure-ftpd does not use a configuration file but can be configured using command-line arguments. For example if you want all users to be chrooted to their home directories, you could use '-A' option, like this: cygrunsrv -I pure-ftpd -d "CYGWIN pure-ftpd" \ -p /usr/sbin/pure-ftpd.exe -a -A Start the service using the following command: net start pure-ftpd On Windows XP you can run pure-ftpd service under Local System account; on Windows 2003 Server you need a special user such as the one created by ssh-host-config script. If you change service logon account, don't forget to delete /var/run/pure-* and /var/log/pure-* because otherwise pure-ftpd won't be able to open them after restart. The cygwin port has been built using the following configuration: ./configure --with-everything --with-rfc2640 --with-largefile Standard 'unix' authentication is supported in this build and is the default auth type. To enable anonymous ftp, you should create a local user 'ftp' and regenerate your /etc/passwd file (man mkpasswd/mkgroup). If you want to use pure-uploadscript, you can also run it as a Windows service similar to pure-ftpd. For more information about this package, see the upstream documentation in /usr/share/doc/pure-ftpd-1.0.21.
