No!  The ftpd I got from relay.cs.toronto.edu is a BSD-ftpd of 1989 with
additional hacks (the -a flag) for logging anonymous ftp sessions.  It also
contained a bug.  I corrected this bug and made the new version available
for anonymous ftp at ftp.vmars.tuwien.ac.at [128.130.39.16] in
/pub/unix/ftpd.tar.Z.
