Hello Chris!

Please see http://bugs.debian.org/307498, which describes a small bug and 
unnecessary limitation in vsftpd (which I reported a year ago, so this is a 
reminder to the Debian maintainer as well). In short, ssl_init uses 
SSL_CTX_use_certificate_file(), which only accepts a file containing a single 
certificate, but often you have an intermediate certificate you need to send 
to the client as well.

Not that anyone *uses* TLS with FTP, but still...
