NAME
     vsftpd - Very Secure FTP Daemon

SYNOPSIS
     vsftpd [configuration file]

DESCRIPTION
     vsftpd is the Very Secure File Transfer Protocol Daemon. The server can
     be launched via a "super-server" such as inetd(8) or xinetd(8).  Alter-
     natively, vsftpd can be launched in standalone mode, in which case
     vsftpd itself will listen on the network. This latter mode is easier to
     use, and recommended. It is activated by setting listen=YES in
     /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf.  Direct execution of the vsftpd binary will
     then launch the FTP service ready for immediate client connections.

OPTIONS
     An optional [configuration file] may be given on the command line. This
     configuration files has to be owned by root. The default configuration
     file is /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf.
