Package: vsftpd
Version: 2.3.2-3+squeeze2
Severity: wishlist

In order to enable a passwordless, anonymous file-sharing service for a scanner
and multiple PCs on a private network, I needed to use man vsftpd to find these
parameters:

diff /etc/vsftpd.conf junk2/etc/vsftpd.conf 
24,29d23
< anon_root=/home/ftp/
< no_anon_password=yes
< anon_world_readable_only=no
< dirlist_enable=yes
< anon_other_write_enable=yes
< anon_umask=007
It would be more convenient if they were documented internally, with defaults 
and
warnings, in /etc/vsftpd.conf. Such a server is needed where guests frequently
visit and need to share images from smart phones, tablets and notebooks with the
residents who use the scanner and various PCs. If not documented in
/etc/vsftpd.conf, there should be an example configuration file.
