RE: [Nolug] ProFTPD help

Hi Dustin.

Yep. :)

About the only thing I wasn't able to accomplish was to support SFTP. From what
I gather the user needs shell access to accomplish this. But we don't want to
give them shell access, just FTP.

I did read about some commercial solutions (ssh2, WS-FTP server w/ ssh) but they
cost more than we would like. Rssh is an option in those cases where the
customer really needs it, but it is a bit messy.

Oh well, you can't have everything! :)
