Gary Bell commented on FTPSERVER-205: ------------------------------------- You can manually edit the user properties file, using the MD5 encrypt webpage at http://www.iwebtool.com/md5 to create the password hash. You have to restart the server to get it to see the change though. We have implemented a custom SITE UPDATE command to create a new UserManager object and call the setUserManager() on the default listener: FtpServer server = new FtpServer(); String filename = "c:\bar\foo.properties"; //name of user property file. .... .... === Snippet from onSite() method call === PropertiesUserManager userManager = new PropertiesUserManager(); userManager.setFile(new File(filename)); //re-read the properties file with the newly added accounts. userManager.configure(); server.getListener("default").setUserManager(userManager); ================================== This seems to work OK for us. > missing user management docs > ---------------------------- > > Key: FTPSERVER-205 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FTPSERVER-205 > Project: FtpServer > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.0-M3 > Reporter: Amichai Rothman > Assignee: Niklas Gustavsson > Fix For: 1.0-M4 > > > There is no mention in the docs of how to manage users (i.e. add new ones, > etc.). There's one page which mentions the admin GUI app which is not > available in the distribution (see issue FTPSERVER-201). As a new user on a > new installation, I could not find the mechanism by which I can add and > administer users on the server, which makes it pretty much unusable. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
