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?
