+Pure-FTPd is a free (BSD), secure, production-quality and
+standard-conformant FTP server. It doesn't provide useless bells
+and whistles, but focuses on efficiency and ease of use. It provides
+simple answers to common needs, plus unique useful features for personal
+users as well as hosting providers.
+
+You can enable optional (not-autodetected) features by passing variables
+to the script (VAR=yes/no ./pure-ftpd.SlackBuild):
+MYSQL=yes|no (default: no), requires mysql (available in Slackware)
+PGSQL=yes|no (default: no), requires postgresql
+TLS=yes|no (default: no), requires openssl (available in Slackware)
+LANGUAGE=english|german|french ... (default: english,
+see http://download.pureftpd.org/pub/pure-ftpd/doc/README for a complete
+list)
+
+If you want to start the pure-ftpd daemon at boot, add this
+to /etc/rc.d/rc.local
+
+ # Start pure-ftpd:
+ if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.pure-ftpd ]; then
+ /etc/rc.d/rc.pure-ftpd start
+ fi
+
+to stop it at shutdown add the same lines, changing "start" with "stop",
+to /etc/rc.d/rc.local_shutdown

+
+# Be 'customer proof' : workaround against common customer mistakes like
+# 'chmod 0 public_html', that are valid, but that could cause ignorant
+# customers to lock their files, and then keep your technical support busy

+# knowledge, this feature is useless. If you're a hosting service, enable it.
+
+CustomerProof yes
+
+
+
+# Per-user concurrency limits. It will only work if the FTP server has
+# been compiled with --with-peruserlimits (and this is the case on
+# most binary distributions) .
+# The format is : <max sessions per user>:<max anonymous sessions>
+# For instance, 3:20 means that the same authenticated user can have 3 active
+# sessions max. And there are 20 anonymous sessions max.
+
+# PerUserLimits 3:20
+
+
+
+# When a file is uploaded and there is already a previous version of the file
+# with the same name, the old file will neither get removed nor truncated.
+# Upload will take place in a temporary file and once the upload is complete,
+# the switch to the new version will be atomic. For instance, when a large PHP
+# script is being uploaded, the web server will still serve the old version and
+# immediatly switch to the new one as soon as the full file will have been
+# transfered. This option is incompatible with virtual quotas.
+
+# NoTruncate yes
+
+
+
+# This option can accept three values :
+# 0 : disable SSL/TLS encryption layer (default).
+# 1 : accept both traditional and encrypted sessions.
+# 2 : refuse connections that don't use SSL/TLS security mechanisms,
+# including anonymous sessions.
+# Do _not_ uncomment this blindly. Be sure that :
+# 1) Your server has been compiled with SSL/TLS support (--with-tls),
+# 2) A valid certificate is in place,
+# 3) Only compatible clients will log in.
+
+# TLS 1
+
+
+# List of ciphers that will be accepted for SSL/TLS connections
+# Prefix with -S: in order to totally disable SSL but not TLS.
+
+# TLSCipherSuite HIGH:MEDIUM:+TLSv1:!SSLv2:+SSLv3
+
+
+
+# Listen only to IPv4 addresses in standalone mode (ie. disable IPv6)
+# By default, both IPv4 and IPv6 are enabled.

+IPV4Only yes
+
+
+
+# Listen only to IPv6 addresses in standalone mode (ie. disable IPv4)
+# By default, both IPv4 and IPv6 are enabled.

+# for remote clients if they don't use UTF-8.
+# Works only if pure-ftpd has been compiled with --with-rfc2640

+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
+# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
+# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
