Notes

1. Multiple sets of binaries for Linux/x86 [February 16, 2002]

This package may contain more than one set of binaries, in separate subdirectories. Each subdirectory is named according to the version of the C library that the set is intended for. For example, the GNU Libc version 2.1 binaries are in the "glibc2.1" directory.

For example, Red Hat Linux 7.x uses glibc2.2, Red Hat Linux 6.x uses the glibc2.1, Red Hat Linux 6.x uses glibc2.0, and Red Hat Linux 4.x uses the old libc5. Therefore, you should use the binaries that correspond to your version of libc.

2. Use the install_ncftpd.pl script [May 20, 2001]

The installation program (install_ncftpd.pl) is in the top-level directory as well as in the individual binary subdirectories. If you run the script from the top-level directory, the script should be able to automatically choose which set of binaries you need.
