Hi,

I have set up ISPConfig3 on my Ubuntu 8.1 webserver. I am trying to make some FTP users, but it doesnt seem to work? I notice that [CLIENTNAME] is before the username on the add users page. Can you give me a guide as to what to do to get FTP access?

Thanks,

phenner

If you installed ispconfig 3 exactly as described in the ispconfig 3 documentation then ftp users should work out of the bix. Just add a new ftp user in ispconfig and then use the ftp username that is displayed in the list after you created the ftp user to access your website by ftp.

I have installed ISPconfig to the tee. When I make a user account for FTP, the username in the list is shown as defaultusername, where username is what I really want it to be called. Either way it doesn't let me log in.

Any ideas?

Did you create a client? Create a client, login as the client, then create the ftp user.

I do not like this with ispconfig3 - when no client is selected and a database or ftp user is created the user is named - defaultuser, IS THIS A BUG?

Well I have just tried that, and it still isnt working. I have the same issue with my IMAP server, created the email in ISPconfig3 and then it says I am using the wrong password. :@

What is the username for the ftp and imap user? how long did you wait after you created the user?
