The FtpServer project is somewhat dormant but the code base is reasonably solid. The way I see it, the major value FtpServer adds is being embeddable and offering a flexible API for integrating it, like switching out the file system or integrating with some custom authentication. If you're looking for a more regular FTP server, serving files from a normal file system, I'd go with something else, FileZilla being a good option. /niklas
