Apache HTTP Server

claimed by Apache Software Foundation

The Apache HTTP Server Project is a collaborative software development effort aimed at creating a robust, commercial-grade, feature-rich, and freely-available source code implementation of an HTTP (Web) server. The project is jointly managed by a group of volunteers located around the world, using ... [More] the Internet and the Web to communicate, plan, and develop the server and its related documentation. This project is part of the Apache Software Foundation. In addition, hundreds of users have contributed ideas, code, and documentation to the project. [Less]

lighttpd

Security, speed, compliance, and flexibility--all of these describe LightTPD which is rapidly redefining efficiency of a webserver; as it is designed and optimized for high performance environments. With a small memory footprint compared to other web-servers, effective management of the cpu-load ... [More] , and advanced feature set (FastCGI, CGI, Auth, Output-Compression, URL-Rewriting and many more) LightTPD is the perfect solution for every server that is suffering load problems. [Less]

vsftpdx

This project aims to extend the popular vsftpd FTP server by Chris Evans. Goals maintain the stability and security of vsftpd add features to make vsftpd more suitable for closed private servers virtual users stored in a SQLite database log into the database, which allows to calculate transfer ... [More] stats easily virtual permission system independent of filesystem permissions Windows/Cygwin support (based on a patch by Jason Tishler) port useful features from the discontinued OpenFTPD project to vsftpdx Roadmap release a first public version (very soon) finish core features like the permission system (some weeks) add SITE commands for server and data management (some weeks) port all useful features from OpenFTPD to vsftpdx (several weeks) write a web based or native admin tool (later) add scripting support for Ruby, Python or Lua (later) Wanted coders for the core project (good C skills!) coders for an web based admin tool (C, PHP, Ruby, whatever) documentation writers beta testers comments and feature requests maintainers for binary packages (deb/rpm) Thanks Big thanks to Chris Evans for writing a great piece of software with an exceptionally clean design and very readable and well documented code.

easyftpd

easyFTPDAbouteasyFTPD is a FTP-server constructed to easily handle virtual users. Most large ftp-servers are complicated to configure, especially when handling virtual users. easyFTPD simply handles a "users" configuration-file which lists virtual users and what they should access. It ... [More] should run on any unix-like system (linux/BSD/solaris...) and has python 2.3 (or higher) as its only dependancy. Virtual usersThe main idea of easyFTPD is to be able to quickly set up an ftp-server for virtual users. A users configuration file simply contains rows of data in the format: username:password:permissions:share_pathwhere each field is specified like: username = The username of the user (ex: buffi) password = The plaintext password or salted passwordhash (ex: secretpass or 12345!0021eaf783f7743cb542f3920bfa508f368b1631) permissions = The permissions granted for the user to the shared folder (ex: rw) share_path = The folder that the user should have access to (ex: /home/buffi/ftp_share) An example users file can look like this pub:banana:r:/home/buffi/ftp_share/pub buffi:skA3fas2:rw:/home/buffi stabpaw:ujk3m!73cff165ea637d821f9ba5f9d11aa96333fd87d0:rw:/home/buffi/ftp_share/stabpawQuick startDownload the application and unpack it Install it by issuing the following command as root python setup.py installRun it! easyftpdOptional arguments can be passed when starting the application. For an example, to run easyFTPD as a daemon process in the background on port 12345 start it with easyftpd -p 12345 -dThanks toThe guys behind pyftpdlib which is used as the backbone of easyftpd.
