I installed proftpd the other day and well read the man page and visited the proftpd web site. Maybe I should get a new hat, but in there I found that I should have an ftp group etc.
Ok, here is what I want: I have a 5 gb partition set a side for ftp space, so I would mound /dev/hdc2 /ftp Now I want to be able to have some users connect to the proftpd from the net right from the login prompt., I only want them to connect to the ftp server, not the other shells, like you do when you connect to a normal ftp site. Do I need a user and group setup as ftp? Thx for the help, I feel very dumb not knowing this, it seems so simple until I read the web site and man page.
