WU-FTPD 2.6.1 Release Notes (5900-2465, September 2012)

The virtual address hostname string directive
This directive is used to change the default hostname of the FTP server. This directive is used in the
/etc/ftpd/ftpaccess file.
NOTE: The virtual address hostname string directive does not require the
virtual address root directive. This directive overrides the hostname string directive.
If the /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess file has the hostname string directive but does not have the
virtual address hostname string directive, then the hostname string directive does
not affect the behavior of the ftpd(IM) daemon. If both the virtual address hostname
string directive and the hostname string directive are present in the /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess
file, the virtual address hostname string directive does not affect the behavior of the
ftpd(1M) daemon.
The virtual address root path and virtual address email string directives
These directives are used to change the email address of the FTP archive maintainer. These directives
are used in the /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess file.
NOTE: The virtual address root path directive must be mentioned for the virtual
address email string directive to work. This directive overrides the email string directive.
If the /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess file has the email string directive but does not have the
virtual address email string directive, the email string directive does not affect the
behavior of the ftpd(1M) daemon. If both virtual address email string and email
string directives are present in the /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess file, the virtual address
email string takes precedence over the email string directive.
The virtual address incmail emailaddress directive
This directive is used to change the email address for anonymous upload notifications. This directive
is used in the /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess file.
NOTE: The virtual address incmail emailaddress directive does not require the
virtual address root path directive. This directive overrides the incmail emailaddress
directive. If the master /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess configuration file has the incmail
emailaddress directive but does not have the virtual address incmail emailaddress
directive, the incmail emailaddress directive does not affect the behavior of the ftpd(1M)
daemon.
The virtual address mailfrom emailaddress directive
This directive is used to change the sender's email address for anonymous upload notifications.
This directive is used in the /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess file.
NOTE: The virtual address mailfrom emailaddress directive does not require the
virtual address root path directive. This directive overrides the mailfrom emailaddress
directive. If the master /etc/ftpd/ftpaccess configuration file has the mailfrom
emailaddress directive but does not have the virtual address mailfrom emailaddress
directive, the mailfrom emailaddress directive does not affect the behavior of the ftpd(1M)
daemon.
