Hi John,
Good pointers but i'm not sure i'm up to setup a chrooted ssh
environment. I tried that a couple of times (not on this network) and
it wasn't very practical. I'm not saying i'm an expert at that and it
may very well be my fault if i found it cumbersome.
vsftpd is supposed to support FTPS so it would be perfect in my situation.
Thanks!
