Hi, Thanks to all that replied. I downloaded pure-ftpd 1.0.16c, compiled it with ./configure , then make (easy!). I disabled my xinetd launched proftpd, then started pure-ftpd.
It worked the first time. I was able to successfully connect to ::1 and login with my local account. I can also reach it through my 6to4 tunnel which was the end goal. Thanks again!
