Yes. FreeBSD has a "built-in" ftp server with the default install (you can choose not to install it). If I remember correctly it is a derivitive of wu-ftp, but took on a life of its own and doesn't have any of the vulnerabilities that wu is so famous for. It's actually a failry robust server, not quite as nice as some of the commercial packages I've used, but quite nice.

'man ftpd' for more details. This is news to me. Do you mean to say one can have ftp access to a server on which nothing from the ports have been installed? I did not know that there is such a possibility, or maybe what you mean by the 'base system'. I did man ftp but no mention of welcome msg though. -Wash -- Odhiambo Washington Inter-Connect Ltd., wash@iconnect.co.ke 5th Flr Furaha Plaza Tel: 254 11 222604 Nkrumah Rd., Fax: 254 11 222636 PO Box 83613 MOMBASA, KE.
