Introduction

mod_ftp is a FTP Protocoll module to serve httpd content over the FTP protocol (whereever the HTTP protocoll could also be used). It provides both RETR/REST retrieval and STOR/APPE upload, using the same user/permissions model as httpd (so it shares the same security considerations as mod_dav plus mod_dav_fs).
