 May be you're trying to use ftpd.conf with ftpd(8), but actually there are TWO
 ftp daemons in base system, and ftpd.conf(5) man page is for lukemftpd(8).
 The latter is obtained from NetBSD and more featureful, but does not support
 sendfile(2).
 
 This can be not only documentation problem, but a buildworld config too, as
 about two daemons installed at the SAME time.
