Please, can somebody give me an example how to use it? I have try to but files such betaftpd.users/groups but it seems it doesn't work.
Thank youGreetings !
I've just asked you yesterday...now, I've discovered...maybe I've tried to add a user without being root...don't remember, whatever...
You have to add a system - wide user, and it's home directory is going to be the document root... I suppose there isn't to much to configure, because betaftp isn't using any configs...is betaftpd safe to use as an internet wide ftp? and how do i allow anonymous users to connect? and where do i upload the files to be downloaded by the user.

Is somebody succeed to use betaftpd with DSL ?
I use it every day.
Just start the daemon, and users can log in with their usernames and passwords.
Very simple.

Depends on what you mean by safe. Betaftpd lets whoever logs in view every file on your computer, and change whatever files they have permission to. But they have to login with a username and password, so whatever.

You can't.
If you need anonymous login for ftp, get the PureFTPd extension from MyDSL.

When you first login to a ftp account, you start our in the user's /home directory. So that's usually a good place to start.
I have my ftp users' homes symlinked to another drive, for space reasons, but you can put the files wherever you want, really, since Betaftpd allows users to view all files on the system.
-J.P.ok then how do i get pureftpd to start up when i start my computer up?Next Page...
