ftpaddhost(1M)

NAME

     ftpaddhost - set up a virtual FTP host

SYNOPSIS

     ftpaddhost -c | -l [-b] [-x xferlog] hostname root_dir

DESCRIPTION

     The ftpaddhost script is executed by the super user  to  set
     up  virtual FTP hosts. The ftpaddhost command configures the
     virtual host hostname under directory root_dir. The value of
     hostname can be an IP address or the name of a host.

OPTIONS

     The ftpaddhost script supports the following options:

     -b    Create a banner for the virtual host. This  option  is
           useful to confirm that the virtual host is working.

     -c    Configure complete virtual hosting. This option allows
           each  virtual  host  to  have  its  own version of the
           ftpaccess, ftpconversions,  ftpgroups,  ftphosts,  and
           ftpusers  files.  The  master version of each of these
           configuration  files  is  copied  from  the  /etc/ftpd
           directory   and   placed  in   the  /etc/ftpd/virtual-
           ftpd/hostname directory.  If  the  /etc/ftpusers  file
           exists it is appended to the virtual ftpusers file. If
           a virtual host lacks its own version of  a  configura-
           tion file, the master version is used.

     -l    Configure limited virtual hosting. This  option allows
           a  small  number  of  parameters to be configured dif-
           ferently for a  virtual host. See the virtual  keyword
           on the ftpaccess(4) manual page.

     -x xferlog
           Create a logfile entry such that the transfer logs for
           the virtual host are written to the specified file. An
           absolute path must be specified for the xferlog file.

OPERANDS

     The following operands are supported:

     hostname
           The host name or IP address of the virtual server.

     root_dir
           The absolute pathname of the directory under which the
           virtual server is set up.

     0     Successful completion

     1     Improper usage of the command
