Configuring proftpd



I am trying to configure proftpd on my woody box and having no success.

I want to beable to log in with the account called "upload" an have all premissions. I want all files to be uploaded into the /var/www folder. I am very confused.
I followed the documentation and had no luck.  Can somebody lend me a hand?


# This is a basic ProFTPD configuration file (rename it to
# 'proftpd.conf' for actual use.  It establishes a single server
# and a single anonymous login.  It assumes that you have a user/group
# "nobody" and "ftp" for normal operation and anon.
