If you wanted to take the discussion to alternate server software, I've
successfully run ProFTPd under Cygwin on a Win2K installation. This was
not for a very intensive site, I just needed it for a small automated
transfer, but it worked fine for my purposes. The only weird issue I ran
into was having some of my test files created with NT ACLs that didn't
have Full Control privilige for any user. The files could be read to and
written from but not deleted, nor the permissions altered (or at least I
don't know how one would do it). vsftpd looks like a better design than
proftpd but I don't know if it runs on Win32 in any fashion.
