Virtual FTP support
Virtual FTP support enables you to manage an FTP server for multiple domains on the same machine.
Virtual FTP allows an administrator to configure a system to display a different banner, log file,
and directory to a user when the user is connected to different domains on the same system. The
advantage of virtual FTP support is that the identity of the machine is hidden. Additionally, this
feature enables a single machine to act as multiple FTP servers for multiple domains.
Figure 1 shows a graphical representation of an FTP server, ftp.domain.com, hosting two virtual
domains, ftp.animals.com and ftp.flowers.com.
