 * Hi all,
 * WordPress on Ubuntu 12.04 64bit
 * I’m running WP on local server without vsftpd installed. I have to install the
   latter to satify some themes. Because on installing theme some theme popup a 
   form requesting to fill in following data, e.g. Gommero;
 * Hostname (Whether it is the hostname of the OS ?)
 * FTP Username (Neither administrator nor root works. Whether I have to add a new
   user for this purpose?)
 * FTP Password
 * Connection Type FTP FTPS (SSL) (What is that for? WP is running locally)
 * Please advise. TIA
 * Furthermore why not all themes request filling this information?
 * Regards
    satimis
