19990225: FTP on Linux

Tony-

To get FTP working you need to install the wu-ftpd package.  This is
located on the CD under the Networking/Daemons folder.  Install
that, then go to the RedHat homepage and install the security fix 
for wu-ftpd:

ftp://updates.redhat.com/5.2/i386/wu-ftpd-2.4.2b18-2.1.i386.rpm

Download this to /tmp and then run (as root):

cd /tmp
rpm -Uvh wu-ftpd-2.4.2b18-2.1.i386.rpm

This will get you FTP access to your system.  This only allows
user access, not anonymous FTP.
