Salvador, The Apache Ftpserver is pretty robust and stable. Have been using it for sometime. Its easily embedded and can tweak the way you want it which includes the Authentication module and the FileSystemView. It works great with the normal file system as well as with the VFS.

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
