Ok erm Keith why don't you simply add packages using Mandrake package
installer if you want easy installation? - there should be already
FTP/MAIL/WEB server packages in your CD ROM.

I don't know which FTP server comes with mandrake (I'm a red hat linuxer)
but I'd avoid to use wu-ftpd for security reasons. If you want for easy
configuration though, choose wu-ftpd with a K front end (Kwu-ftpd).

Remember that there's always a compromise between easy of installation and
configurability options.

That's it.
James.
