FTP Server / FTPD

Submitted by sysadmn on December 13, 2007 - 12:08pm

Please consider creating a "Portable" version of the slimftpd.

Name of the program: slimfptd 3.181
Website for the program: http://www.whitsoftdev.com/slimftpd/
Description: From the website:

SlimFTPd is a fully standards-compliant FTP server implementation with an advanced virtual file system. It is extremely small, but don't let its file size deceive you: SlimFTPd packs a lot of bang for the kilobyte. It is written in pure Win32 C++ and requires no messy installer.

I will be teaching an intro to computer class beginning in Jan. and I am going to be giving all the students thumb drives with portable apps, but one of the requests from the school was a personal finance software, that could be taught to the students (all the students are the parents of the kids at this school) and since tax time is rolling around, I thought it might be a good idea, but when I went looking around I could find no *simple* tool that could do several things.

Track expenses, allow them to build budgets, and see how saving money will benefit them in the long run.

Speed

I'd like a program that can speed up the computer by using my fast flash drive instead of virtual memory. I know about WinVista's "ReadyBoost" capabilities (like that'll work). The PC's at my school are older than my brother and sister! They run so slow, my toaster oven is faster (okay, i'm not comparing apples to apples, but it does take 10 minutes to have the PC download a picture of toast)! I know this isn't very feasible (I think), but it's worth a shot. Thanks.
