Can I install vsftpd on Ubuntu Desktop 10.04 LTS?

[xavierlinw]

I just installed Ubuntu Desktop 10.04 LTD on my computer, and I wanted to install vsftpd on it, but I got an error message.

I am wondering if I can install any server software onto Ubuntu Desktop Edition, like apache2, vsftpd, postfix, and openssh-server. Do I must use the Server Edition to do so?

I am sorry. I am just a new guy to Ubuntu.
