erhm, the vsftp-software stands for "very secure ftp", but of course the
admin and the admin's configuring makes it secure or not

(the fact that the redhat-company now uses it as their default
ftp-server doesn't mean anything, because they were provided wu-ftpd as
the default ftp-server install years ago afair, and wu-ftpd has a pretty
bad reputation as has other software from WU, like pine)
