ProFTP and MySQL on Fedora 9
July 20th, 2008
I came across an article documenting how to install a ProFTP server that uses MySQL virtual users instead of real system users allowing up to thousands of FTP users on a single machine. The instructions include the installation of ProFTP, MySQL and PHPMyAdmin, the latter is a web administration tool for the MySQL database. It’s an interesting concept which simplifies administration of FTP users if you have thousands of ProFTP users on a single system. However, the tutorial does not include the fine tuning of ProFTP, which in my opinion, is necessary.
