Oh let me tell you! I was totally against configuring it/using it - I was overridden by some mucky mucks.... if the wuftp wasn't bad enough - you should have seen the username/password combos the thing was serving... testuser1/testuser1 testuser2/tsetuser2 poweruser/passwd1 Holy smokes ! I got in, figured out the loopback mounting they wanted, got some CYA indicating I was against it's use (wu-ftp), and turned over all the info. I didn't want to lose my job (I was just starting out at this company) - what do you do???
