Install anonymous FTP server with command:

rpm -iUh wu-ftpd-2.6.0-2.i386.rpm anonftp-3.0-3.i386.rpm 

> What's wrong:

file /etc/ftpusers from install of wu-ftpd-2.6.0-2 conflicts with file
from package athena-krb5-8.3-25

Note that these are the most updated packages; the ones in the
redhat-6.1 distribution
(/afs/athena/system/rhlinux/redhat-6.1/RedHat/RPMS/) are a bit out of
date.

If this isn't the Right Way to get anonymous FTP, please let me
know. 8)

To do the install on my machine, I installed vanilla RedHat 6.1 (sans
wu-ftpd, as I was afraid this would conflict with something) and then
added the Athena RPMS.

I was following the (perhaps outdated) directions in the Inessential
Linux-Athena document linked from http://web.mit.edu/linux/www/


Thanks,

Beland
