[»] pure-ftpd: best thing since sliced bread
by Andy Grundman - Mar 5th 2004 21:39:22

The ability to write a custom auth handler is great!! I was able to use a custom handler that talks to my web site API to let users of my website have FTP logins.

Not to mention all the other great features: mysql auth, chroot all but a certain group (admins), bandwidth management, and so on. I think anything you would need in an FTP server you get with pure :)

    [»] pure-ftp
    by Shawn Mulligan - Jul 19th 2006 15:28:46

    Hi there, I hope this is the right place for this. I am running a dedicated server and using cPanel. When I ftp in it tells me that the ftp server is the following in the welcome header: Pure-FTPd (TLS) Is this the same software? If yes then I need to know a few things if possible. 1. It is currently not using a database and if so then I have no clue where. 2. Can I convert it to use a mysql database? 3. Can I run more than one version of the software if you can not convert it? 4. In either example above if it uses a databse for user access, I can create and delete users right from the sql database instead of the files that stores user info?? Thanks for all help. Shawn Mulligan P.S. I am looking for a way to dynamically create ftp user accounts and I know how to write php and work with sql databses.

[»] Small change needed in ftpd.h
by efinley - Jan 18th 2004 09:37:14

#define MAX_USER_LENGTH 32U

needs to be changed to

#define MAX_USER_LENGTH 64U

I use pure-ftp for hosting virtual domains, some with very long domain names, so the user actually looks like someuser@someverylongdomainname.com which is longer than 32 characters.

If this is the wrong place to request this change, please point me in the right direction - thanks.

Elliot

[»] Very customizable, well-documented..
by Mike Taylor - Jun 16th 2002 05:46:48

I downloaded this program about two hours ago, and have been playing around with the customization since. I love the features and versatility. It compiled great on FreeBSD and Linux. It looks advanced enough to be used in nearly every application. It has support for root FTPd and also, just user FTP servers. It also supports virtual binding for multiple IP's. I give this software an A+ very good.

Sounds like a good project. However, "bounded" is not an english word... :-)

    Hem.... sorry.... is there a word for "restricted in bounds" ?

    --
    Theoretically it is possible that all quantums in my body decide to tunnel through space-time at exactly the same time and with the exactly samedirection and speed vector for exactly the same duration of time and that I am suddenly effectively teleported to the surface of the moon.

    Hmm... we mathematicians use the word "bounded" all the time, as in "this sequence is bounded above by 5".

    See http://www.dictionary.com/cgi-bin/dict.pl?term=bounded

    Try this:
    http://dict.leo.org/?search=bounded
    (or just leo:bounded in Konqueror)

    it means "begrenzt" or "beschränkt".

[»] nice
by karellen - May 26th 2001 03:48:34

This ftp server is very nice and featureful plus it's actively developed. Supports chrooting users, bandwidth throttling, etc. I'm using it on Linux and FreeBSD, and I've been getting higher transfer rates, and lower load compared to other ftp servers.
