To install:
- Copy the contents of the ftp-admin folder to /var/www or similar
- Make sure the perl modules are available by running perl -c Admin.pm
- Edit the cfg.ini file - should be fairly self explanatory
- Copy (or link) ftp-admin.apache.conf into /etc/apache2/conf.d and restart
Apache
- Create the mysql database:
mysqladmin create pureftpd
mysql pureftpd < ftp-admin.schema.sql
- Set up pure-ftpd to look at the mysql database for its users (example config
in pureftpd-mysql.conf)
When you login to the web page and create a user, it will make a directory
under the configured content_dir and then send an email to the user who created
the user.
There is also a cronjob script which should be run nightly called
db-cleaner.pl, this will send reminder emails to people who have created FTP
accounts a day before they expire. It will also delete expired FTP accounts.
