i just emerged mod_ftpd and configured it to run, inow get no errors on init.d
BUT i cant login, it never asks for a user/pass, i might have some setitngs incorrect,
my big question was the <directory> command, is it suposed to point to the place where i want it to access?

Code:

   Listen 21
   <VirtualHost *:21>
           DocumentRoot /var/www/hosts/mydomain/htdocs
           FtpProtocol On
           FtpShowRealPermissions Off
           FtpAllowActive On
           FtpMinPort 1024
           FtpPaxPort 65535
           FtpLimitOrder default
           FtpDefaultMaxLogins 3
           <Directory /var/ftp>
                   AuthUserFile /usr/local/httpd/ftp
                   Anonymous_Authoritative On
                   AuthAuthoritative Off
                   Anonymous_NoUserID Off
                   Anonymous_MustGiveEmail Off
                   Anonymous_VerifyEmail Off
                   Anonymous_LogEmail Off
                   Anonymous anonymous
                   AuthName ftp
                   AuthType Basic
         require valid-user
                   order allow,deny
                   allow from all
           </Directory>

is there a certain place to put special users? ive read a little about virtual users and im not quite sure what that implies, and i have no idea where to go to impliment those... the documentation is horrable lol

here is the virtualhost

Code:

#www.mydomain.com
<VirtualHost 192.168.1.100>
   ServerName mydomain.com
   ServerAlias www.mydomain.com *.mydomain.com
   DocumentRoot /var/www/hosts/mydomain/htdocs
</VirtualHost>


plz help?

You should post those errors, apache often spits out info re syntax problems in *.conf.

This looks like it's taken verbatum form some example configuration (where apache is run from /usr/local). I'm guessing this is the path to a file with a list of users to athenticate against.

ok i wont touch the auth thing, i cant exactly remember where i got it, i think it was from the documentation.

but about the errors, i dont get any anymore, i fixed all the visable ones, mainly because i didnt have the auth setup, but now i get NO errors on apache2 startup, BUT it still dosnt let me log in or anything, it just says "connecton was refused while attempting to contact."

does it take the box's main usernames? or is there a seperate config or something werhe im suposed to setup alternate FTP only logins?
