pyftpd 0.8.4.5

pyftpd 0.8.4.5 provides great addition to your browser. it is designed to be a free and multi-platform ftp daemon written in Python. pyftpd is capable of working under normal user account and does not require any special rights to start.

Thanks to the modular design, there are possibly many different authentification schemes, most notably anonymous user authentification, authentification from internal database of users (these are virtual users, independent from the operating system users), and authentification against PAM[1].

pyftpd uses its own permission modules, and can pinpoint user permissions down to a simple file and simple ftp operation. pyftpd uses python threads; if your python interpreter was compiled without thread support, it will use forking instead, with limited functionality (limiting number of simultaneously logged users and some other options wont work). If neither threads nor fork is available, pyftpd will serve just one connection at a time.
