FileZilla Server is Free software (both as in free speech as well as free beer), wheras dynu basic is the usual, expensive commercial software.
FileZilla Server is small, can be installed and configured very quickly. I tried to look at the dynu basic demo, but I didn't want to download 35 MB.

aha... :o
Talking about features, can we host telnet, email and/or chat server on FileZilla? Does it limit the file size or something?

Ta! :D

I think that FileZilla is an ftp server.

If you are looking to set up an email server, you might be in the wrong forum :)

FileZilla Server just serves FTP. For other services you need a different program.

Yup. FileZilla is exclusively an FTP server. Dynu Basic is a Dynamic DNS service. The Basic service is free also.
Cooincidentally, these two can be used together if you want to set up an FTP server on a dynamic IP system.

I think he talks about the Dynu Server Software (which also includes a ftp server) and not the dynu dns services. http://www.dynu.com/server.asp
