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.
Cheers,
Sam

I am starting to use Apache FtpServer. It seems a good ftp server, but I am
not sure about the project activity. Is the Apache FtpServer an active
project? How does Apache FtpServer compares with FileZilla? From
ApacheFtpServer I like it a lot to have event hooks via Ftplets...something
like this cannot be achieved with FileZilla. My concern is on robustness and
stability.
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.
