Planning on running ncftpd on AIX



I have the need for an ftp server that will be a little more
configurable on AIX and I am thinking about installing ncftpd. I want
to be able to prevent users from changing to their parent directories
and having access to system files. I do not want to use the anonymous
login either. My questions are this:

Has anyone had any experiences with this ftp server software?

What are the pros and cons of this software?

Is there anything that I need to pay special attention to while setting
this up?

Is there some other software you would recommend above ncftpd?

Thanks for any responses
Have a Happy New Year.
