Thanks for the FB.
I do see some reference to vsftpd but dont see any rpms. Also the 'locate'
command (or script?) that I am so used to, is not available in bash.
Anyway proftpd seems to be well-maintained and I have installed it.

I would say the first thing you're doing wrong is not installing the FTP
server that SUSE ships with their distribution: vsftpd. If you look, you
will find a binary RPM for it somewhere on your installation CDs.
A lot of distributions have abandoned wu-ftp because it has had as many
security vulnerabilities as MS Windows. Even such a staunch conservative
as
Patrick Volkerding finally gave up on it.

Subject: wu-ftp install problem on s/390
Just downloaded wu-ftp 2.6.2 and trying to install on OS/390 SuSE 8.
Chose 'lnx' for ./build xxx
I get some 'incomplete type' messages and then when trying './build
install' says it could not find the target /bin/ftpd, guess this is
because it did not compile/link correctly. 'gcc' is installed and I even
specified "./build CC=gcc lnx"
I am proceeding with proftpd.
If any of you have successfully installed wu-ftpd, please tell me what I
am doing wrong.
