[luau] Secure FTP to RedHat 7.3 box?

[Erich S.]

Thanks Brian!

Wow...OK. Welp I'll chuck wu-ftpd out (dang, just got the RPMS and 
installed it) and get proftpd and give that a shot.

Really appreciate the info and the explanation. It all makes sense, but 
wrapping my head around tunnels gives me headaches :P

I'll let ya'll know how it goes once I've taken a shot at it.

After getting it working locally it's awful appealing to be able to work
with Dreamweaver to do pages, code PHP, and connect to MySQL db data.
(Without the hefty pricetag of coldfusion)

Thanks again,
