Hi Allan , Suse 10 comes with Vsftp if installed at installation time or install the rpm .
You just have to enable afew parameters in the vsftp.conf file in /etc disable anonymous login enable local login if you are using local system accounts enable ftp listen parameter specify the connection port 20/21 enable chroot to ensure that your users home folders are used as their ftp homes. Thats it ,start up the vsftp service and you server should be up For access from the internet you should allow port tcp 20 & 21 traffic to the public ip .
