Hey Earl, yes, you could create a DB backed file system implementation. In fact, if you're able to do it in open I would be happy to help you out and get the code into the core project.
As for users, we already have DBUserManager which should let you do that. The project has graduated from incubation and is now a subproject to Apache MINA. As part of that, the mailing list has moved. I've added the new list on the recipients, please keep any further communication there. The project is active, albeit somewhat slow now as I'm very busy with other things (like moving) for the next couple of weeks. That being said, any contributions are welcomed. We do not have a list of compatible FTP clients, however, I would like FtpServer to be as compliant to the relevant RFC as possible and thus hopefully support as many clients as possible. Any problems in this area will be quickly handled if reported. /niklas On 2/5/08, Earl Cahill <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Howdy, > > Let's say I want to have no mounted drives, and wanted to put all user > information (username, passwords, quotas, etc.), file information (file > names, directory name, owners, etc.) and actual files (bytes) from mysql. > Would ftpserver allow me to do that?
