Note that oftpd was removed from Debian nearly 5 years ago (Bug #332186), a
year and a half after the last release mentioned on
<http://www.time-travellers.org/oftpd/>. It doesn't seem to have changed
since. Please don't upload this to Debian unless you're willing to take over
upstream development and security support.

The same is frequently said of many ftp servers, as far as I can see...
whether they're *actually* secure is a different matter! vsftpd might be a
good alternative?
