+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
