A fresh install of ftpd-ssl comes up with the following error message:
# ftp localhost
Connected to localhost.
Error loading /etc/ftpd-ssl/ftpd.pem: 139901149021864:error:02001002:system
library:fopen:No such file or
directory:bss_file.c:398:fopen('/etc/ftpdssl/ftpd.pem','r')
I don't yet know if this disrupts functionality, but it does look unintended.
Ciao,
Eike

After a fresh install of ftpd-ssl ther is no connection from remote possible due to this bug. Also my remote client reports this error in the error message
It is in my opinion far better not to generate a default certificate at first install time, than to produce something prone to be an attack vector. Therefore the next packaging of ftpd-ssl will include some informational messages to inform about the missing certificate, and will also contribute an elementary discription for manual remedy of this fact. The bug will remain present for documental purposes. Regards, Mats Erik Andersson, the next maintainer of this package.
