FTPd is a Macintosh implementation of the WWW, Gopher and FTP server protocols. It should be compatible with most FTP clients, and all WWW and Gopher clients. Basically it allows your Mac to act as an FTP server so you (and others) can access your files from anywhere around the world. Obviously there are some serious security considerations you should look in to before using this software (see the Security Considerations section). FTPd requires System 7, MacTCP 1.1, and File Sharing enabled. It honours the Users&Groups privileges and passwords, and supports multiple logins, anonymous FTP (user name anonymous or ftp), as well as MacBinary and BinHex transfers, and the “MACB” FTP command. You can run “FTPd” as a foreground application (displaying the log), or “FTPd (Background)” as a background only application.
