I just installed Knoppix 3.6, and configured apache, and now I need to set up an ftp server, but I'm totally lost on this one....... I looked at the manual for in.tftpd, but couldn't really make heads or tails out of it, as I didn't see any information I needed to know (access path, user name, rights, etc), so if someone could provide me with just a tiny bit of help, I'd really appreciate it.

I suggest you use vsftpd ("vs" stands for "very secure"). vsftpd can be configured to provide anonymous ftp only (so users don't need to transmit passwords) or normal ftp with authentication.

Code: apt-get install vsftpd

tftp is only for booting over the network interface (AFAIK - I may well be wrong here).

Ok, got it. I'm kind of lost though, about how to set it up. Anyone who can provide some help would be greatly appreciated.
