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.

> 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.
