All these packages are at least in Debian/Ubuntu and openSUSE. IMHO other
distros have similar names. Exception is nfs-kernel-server, which is at least on
Fedora/RHEL nfs-server. Thus something like:

dhcp-server, dnsmasq, http-server, nfs-kernel-server or nfs-server, rpcbind,
rsync,telnet-server, vsftpd

Again, /etc/ftpusers is at least for openSUSE and Debian/Ubuntu.
Fedora/RHEL has /etc/vsftpd/ftpusers and /etc/vsftpd/user_list
/etc/vsftpd.ftpusers looks like to be on RHEL 4/ some old Fedora.

Thus:
* In `/etc/ftpusers` (or `/etc/vsftpd/ftpusers` or `/etc/vsftpd.ftpusers`),
* comment the line containing
...

I also wondered if setup should mention something related to single test,
but it didn't harm. I was thinking whether ftp test is worth to keep (and thus
need to be rewritten), but understand it's useful as a high level smoke test.

OK with these changes?

Kind regards,
Petr
