Usage
This section describes the functionality of the various directives.
The virtual address allow username and virtual address deny username directives
These directives are used to allow or deny real and guest users. They can be used in the /etc/
ftpd/ftpaccess file and the virtual domain specific ftpaccess file.
virtual address allow username [ username ... ]
virtual address deny username [ username ... ]
The virtual address private directive
This directive is used to deny anonymous FTP login. By default, anonymous users are allowed to
log in a virtual FTP setup.
virtual address private
The virtual address root path and virtual address banner path directives
These directives are used to display the banner message and are used in the /etc/ftpd/
ftpacess file.
virtual address root path virtual address banner path
NOTE: The virtual address root path directive must be mentioned for the
virtual address banner path directive to work. This directive is additionally required to
allow anonymous FTP access in a virtual FTP setup.
The virtual address banner path directive must be used only in the /etc/ftpd/
ftpaccess file and not in the virtual domain's ftpaccess file. The above directive overrides
the banner path directive. If the master /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess configuration file has banner
path directive but not virtual address banner path directive, the banner path directive
does not have any effect on the behavior of the ftpd(1M) daemon.
The virtual address root path directive can also be used in conjunction with the virtual
address email string directive.
For more information, see “The virtual address root path and virtual address
email string directives.”
The virtual address logfile path directive
This directive is used to change the file where all the logging information of ftpd(1M) must be
written. This directive is used in the /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess file.
NOTE: The virtual address logfile path directive does not require the
virtual address root directive. This directive overrides the logfile path directive. If the
/etc/ftpd/ftpaccess file has the logfile path directive but does not have the virtual
address logfile path directive, then the logfile path directive does not affect the
behavior of the ftpd(1M) daemon.
