Virtual Hosts Support
Virtual Hosts are now fully supported in WU-FTPD 2.6.1. A new configuration file named,
"/etc/ftpd/ftpservers" has been added. This configuration file contains a set of virtual domain
configuration file names that the WU-FTPD server can use. Thus, WU-FTPD has the ability to use
separate configuration files for each virtual domain.
The new configuration file is placed in the directory "/etc/ftpd/". A sample configuration file can
be found in directory "/usr/newconfig/etc/ftpd/".
WU-FTPD 2.4 partially supported virtual servers, that is it supported setting the root ftp directory,
the log file and the banner for each virtual domain. All other directives in the ftpaccess file had to
be shared globally across all virtual servers.
With WU-FTPD 2.6.1, the ftpaccess, ftpusers, ftpgroups, ftphosts and ftpconversions files can now
be specified on a per domain basis. The Master WU-FTPD configuration files present under the
