ProFTPD 1.2 README - FreeBSD


FreeBSD releases 2.0 through 3.3-RELEASE have a libc bug with setpassent(). If you know that you have a fixed libc you can use the configure command line option --enable-force-setpassent to use it with one of these fixed releases, otherwise ProFTPD will use its internal persistent password support. If you would like more information, this bug is described in FreeBSD PR #14201.
