Considering this is to be used as an FTP server, running commands after a file transfer is out. I will then assume that VSFTPD isn't a good ftp server for this function. (I did like it because I could ftp with root. No security problem as both the client and server are on the mainframe, but it allowed me to get around some dasd space problems without much fuss.)
So I will disable VSFTPD and enable the standard FTP (unless someone chimes in with the "best" server for this purpose (on SLES9)).
Your choice of ftp server will probably have make an impact to the line ending problem.
Still, worth a try. Proftpd is also good. After that, plain old bsd ftpd, which is probably the ftpd package, and after *that* the Washington University one, wu-ftpd. I don't know if wu-ftpd has had any security issues recently but once upon a time it was right up there with Sendmail in terms of exploitable holes per week. That time *was* about 12 years ago, though.
