Pure-FTPD

[santerref]

Hello It's me again...

So on my server I remove proFTPD and I setup Pure-FTPD with this tutorial :

http://www.isp-control.net/documentation...rom_binary

For now everything work and my FTP server is faster and never down but when ispCP try to create a subdomain or an alias or a subdomain alias, there is a problem because he cannot find the folder /etc/proftpd/ispcp... I decided to create it and chown vu2000:www-data and it works but is it secure? I have 300 domains on my website and I lost all the file ine /etc/proftpd/ispcp...

I want to know if ispCP need these files?

I think the Guide is to old, because there where some things added which don't work correct with PureFTP.

the files in /etc/proftpd/ispcp hold some more infos about configuration: the user should not delete some of the folders (htdocs, log, backup etc) - for normal domains there is a default but for subdomains and aliases it needs some more entries.
So - if you think your pureftp is ok - you can ignore the settings in theese files - just be sure ispcp can write into the folder /etc/proftpd/ispcp (root:root should be ok) :-)

Ok but the configuration of my Pure-FTPD is the one one the tutorial on the documentation so if you think that I have to change something to protect the folder log, htdocs, etc....

See Post #2

the additional files with the protection came somewhat between RC6 and RC7...

I don't really understand what you are saying...?

The documentation howto install pureftpd is from september last year.
The files in and the folder /etc/proftpd/ispcp were introduced in november last year.

So you have to find out yourself how you want prevent your users from deleting the important folders - it's not covered by the howto.
If you know the trick please add it to the howto.

I will look at that and make change on the howto.
