Need advise about FTP
HI I need to setup an FTP server that accepts virtual domains, and in addition, every domain should have a master account and some users accounts. the master account should be able to delete and upload files for all the users accounts. although this will be an isolated computer in the DMZ, I don't want to give shell to anyone and I prefer that these accounts wouldn't be systems accounts. (can I use something like zope for this?). any ideas? Bye -- Haim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

What do you want with ftp and vhosts? IMO it's completly useless. Take a look at proftpd it's well documented. www.proftpd.org It's capable of using Vhosts but you need a uniq IP for every Vhost. although this will be an isolated computer in the DMZ, I don't want to give shell to anyone and I prefer that these accounts wouldn't be systems accounts. (can I use something like zope for this?). What? Just give them /bin/true or /bin/false as shell.
