Comments on Virtual Hosting With PureFTPd And MySQL (Incl. Quota And Bandwidth Management) On CentOS 5.3

Virtual Hosting With PureFTPd And MySQL (Incl. Quota And Bandwidth Management) On CentOS 5.3 This document describes how to install a PureFTPd server that uses virtual users from a MySQL database instead of real system users. This is much more performant and allows to have thousands of ftp users on a single machine. In addition to that I will show the use of quota and upload/download bandwidth limits with this setup. Passwords will be stored encrypted as MD5 strings in the database.

Next time I'll be more then happy to see process of creation MySQL DB for PureFTP completely in PhpMyAdmin (not only user creation) , without dealing with mysql cli.

I'm newbie in linux and it's lil bit difficult to understand all the commands, especially MySQL cli's commands and syntax's seems to be kind of wired.

It's not escape for me to just copy paste commands in shell.

 Thanks in advance!
