FTPS settings in /etc/proftpd_ispconfig.conf get overwritten

[jahn]

Hello I am a user of ISPConfig,
currently I am using the SVN dev branch version (http://www.ispconfig.org/downloads/ISPConfig-svn-current.tar.gz) and it works fine.

I wanted to setup FTPS in proftpd like described in this Post: http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showpost.php?p=49476&postcount=7
and it works fine, but after some time the /etc/proftpd_ispconfig.conf gets overwritten and the TLS Settings are gone -

Is there a way I can prevent this or a way I can make ISPConfig aware of these settings?

Thanks in advance.

btw: i am using ispconfig on ubuntu 8.04 if that matters..

you can try to add

<VirtualHost your_ip>
TLSEngine on
TLSRSACertificateFile /etc/ssl/certs/proftpd.cert.pem
TLSRSACertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/certs/proftpd.key.pem
</VirtualHost>

to main proftpd conf file:

/etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf

after include /etc/proftpd_ispconfig.conf line

I found the solution to my problem.
There is a file called /root/ispconfig/isp/conf/proftpd_ispconfig.conf.master, I had to edit.
Its the template ISPConfig uses to rewrite the /etc/proftpd_ispconfig.conf.
This ist how my /root/ispconfig/isp/conf/proftpd_ispconfig.conf.master looks now:
###################################
#
# ISPConfig proftpd Configuration File

#TLSRequired on
TLSRSACertificateFile /etc/proftpd/cert/proftpd.cert.pem
TLSRSACertificateKeyFile /etc/proftpd/cert/proftpd.key.pem
{ANON_FTP}
</VirtualHost>
<!-- END DYNAMIC BLOCK: vhost -->

! little off topic !
This has nothing to do with FTPS, but its also about manual settings in ISPControl generated files, the vhosts.

For example: If you automatically want to add Apache Directives to every created site you can edit this template:
/root/ispconfig/isp/conf/vhost.conf.master

You could add an php_admin_value directive or every other directive you want....
...
php_admin_value open_basedir {HTTPD_ROOT}/{WEB}/
...

Dont edit the files in /root/ispconfig/isp/conf/, instead copy the file to /root/ispconfig/isp/conf/customized_templates/ and edit this copy. This prevents that ispconfig removes your changes when you update ispconfig the next time.
