How to Use Apache as a FTP server

Hi All,

I want to use my Apache as a ftp service also.
Can the ring help me.

I am running Apache 1.3.22 at port 80.

when I give http://<servername>/, I get the list of 
files in my htdocs.

Like wise when I give ftp://<servername>/, I need a 
list from my server folders.

Have look at this address,for what I am intending to 
do,......ftp://tiger.com.

I somehow missed the first part of this email thread (from anandr).
The Apache::OpenIndex module (when loaded on the Apache server) provides a
way to upload and download files using a http browsers.
A demo is available at:

That's not mod-perl.  That's not even Apache.  Many popular web browsers 
have browsing features for anonymous FTP.  You need an FTP server for 
that.  Apache 2 will include an FTP server (I think), but for now, try 
wuftpd.
