    I'm not sure what you mean by "assigning permissions dynamically"
    but proftpd supports authentitcation via a MySQL/Postgres database
    aswell as dynamic configuration changes via mod_ctrls - see
    http://www.proftpd.org/docs/howto/Controls.html

    If you need more flexibility, maybe NcFTPd is for you. It's not
    open source, but it has a pretty cool feature set including a
    SDK with sample Perl implementations of an authentication and
    event handling daemon. If you're interested, do check out the
    sections on authd and eventd at http://www.ncftp.org/ncftpd/doc/

  2. Default Re: FTP server

    Hi.

    http://vsftpd.beasts.org/

    if you are paranoic then try using the OpenSSH suite, by setting a sftp
    server, or via scp, chrotting ssh., if not then vsftpd, pureftpd, can
    resolv this question.

    Regards.
