Hi,

I'm still struggling to get ProFTPd going.

On their user support list someone has told me:

"I personally recommend that a new role account [on the OSX server presumably, not in ProFTPd] be created for use specifically by the daemon, a user ftpd, and perhaps even a group ftpd. Many systems that run Apache have a user www or user apache for use by the httpd daemon; similarly, a separate user should be created for the proftpd daemon."

How do I do this exactly? I assume I use NetInfo Manager but I can't seem to give the resulting folder the right name etc.

Hope someone can get me started...

Thanks

Tsilou B,

Thanks, I got it sorted out. Not sure why I was making such a meal of it...
