This wizard resembles the one used to configure a web server: It will let you specify whether FTP should be disabled, visible from the local network, from the external network, or both. A sample window is shown in Figure 8.9, “Defining Where your FTP Server Should Be Visible from”.
You are then asked to configure a few options:
Enter the address to which messages regarding the FTP server should be sent.
Check this box if you wish the root user to be allowed to login into the FTP server. If the FTP authentication is made in clear text, this option is not recommended.
By checking this option, users who log into the FTP server will be “boxed inside” their home directories.
If your server is likely to host large files, it might be prudent to allow users to resume downloads.
Check this option if you want your server to be able to exchange files with other FTP servers. Please note that the FXP protocol is not very secure.
