Re: proftp or wu-ftp?



Ryan do you or does anyone have any instructions for a dim-wit like myself on how to set up proftp.

I've got it installed and kind of operating, but how do I make it default to /home/ftp whenever ANYONE logs in.

Actually, I'm having trouble setting either up.  But let me tell you
what I want to do.

Right now I need to set up an ftp site that authenticated users can
only access in order to download files.  Authentication in our network

is provided by LDAP w/PAM.  I see that proftp has an LDAP package,
which I have installed right now.  So, it seems at first the better.
Ultimately, we may be setting up additional Virtual hosts.

I use proftpd and find it to be very flexible.  It takes a little time
setting it up but works great.
