NAME
dot-ftppasswd - configuration of FTP logins
SYNOPSIS
~/.ftppasswd
DESCRIPTION
This configuration file is used by adis-ftplogin(1) to
verify the credentials passed by adis-ftpup(1) and,
in case of success, to select the parameters for adis-ftpsession(1).
It consists of multiple lines, each line defining a FTP login.
Each valid line consists of three fields:
- a user name, consisting of the login name, a dash, and an extension,
- a password, encrypted using crypt(3c), and
- options for adis-ftpsession(1), followed by the root directory
for this FTP login.
Empty lines and lines beginning with ``#'' are ignored. ``:'' works
as field separator.
EXAMPLE
Following configuration file provides three FTP logins operating
with the privileges of fred. fred-web allows to
access a directory outside the home directory with unrestricted
write access, while fred-upload allows files to be uploaded
non-destructively into the directory tmp/upload below
the home directory. fred-pub provides read-only access to
tmp/pub.
fred-web:NtaCKb111yqoc:-U /home/www/htdocs/users/fred
fred-upload:IHP8zJbZVkgTk:-u tmp/upload
