By default, create a pid file at the standard location, /var/run/ftpd.pid,
in accord with the expected behavior of a stock system daemon.

separating its part around chroot(2) from that around initial
chdir(2). This makes the below changes really easy.
Move seteuid(to user's uid) to before calling chdir(2). There are
two goals to achieve by that. First, NFS mounted home directories
with restrictive permissions become accessible (local superuser
can't access them if not mapped to uid 0 on the remote side
explicitly.) Second, all the permissions to the home directory
pathname components become effective; previously a user could be
carried to any local directory despite its permissions since the
chdir(2) was done with euid 0. This reduces possible impact from
FTP server misconfiguration, e.g., assigning a wrong home directory
to a user.
Implement the "/./" feature. Now a guest or user subject to chrooting
may have "/./" in his login directory, which separates his chroot
directory from his home directory inside the chrooted environment.
This works for ftpchroot(5) as well.

directory can be specified for a user or a group.
Add the manpage ftpchroot(5) since the file's format has grown
complex enough.

Properly sort options, spell "file system" correctly, expand contraction.
Catch up to the src/etc/syslog.conf,v 1.23 change: ftpd(8) session logs
are now by default get logged to /var/log/xferlog.
Approved by: re
o Remove the race between stat(2) & fopen(3) when creating
a unique file.
o Improve bound checking when generating a unique name from
a given pathname.
o Ignore REST marker on APPE. No RFC specifies this case,
but the idea of resuming APPE's implies this.
o By default, deny upload resumes and appends by anonymous users.
Previously these commands were translated to STOU silently,
which led to broken files on server without any notification
to the user.
o Add an option, -m, to allow anonymous users to modify
existing files (e.g., to resume uploads) if filesystem
permissions permit.

in the SYNOPSIS and DESCRIPTION.
Note that -l remains an ugly exception, to which no known rules apply,
since the specification of a single option multiple times isn't normal
standards-compliant CLI behaviour.
While here, mark AF_INET* and LOG_* defined values up with Dv.
-O, which limits the impact of the write-only restriction to guest
users.
*) The existing manual page's SYNOPSIS and option listing in the
DESCRIPTION are already horribly disordered. No attempt has been
made to fix this.

preventing anyone from downloading files. In conjunction with -A, and some
appropriate file permissions, this lets you create an anonymous FTP drop
box for people to upload files to.
The more obvious "-w" flag is already taken by NetBSD's ftpd. "-o" was
available as an option letter in all three BSDs.
This allows you to determine if the file on the other side is the same
as the one you have without transferring the entire file to compare.
Needless to say, if the server end lies to you this check doesn't work,
but on the other hand, if it lies to you about the files checksum,
what can you trust from it ?
