Creating FTP accounts

We need to create an FTP account with several different users and user permissions.

We created a virtual server and changed the home directory to /home/whatever/ftp so they do not have access to the unneeded web stuff.

But how can we create new ftp users and modify their permissions?

We need to add an account that has upload capabilities, and another account that has only download ability.

The default existing account would be the administrative account that can delete etc.

Splitting httpd.conf

Please virtualhosting masters and dragons ;o))), can anyone advise me or give me little how to for splitting httpd.conf into different files for every single virtual host.

Can this be done I mean when I setup this in Apache configuration will virtualmin accept this configuration and write every virtualhost into different file ?

It will help me with my mongrel issue and with other things too.

Thanks for any advice.

common ftp login for developers

Is it possible for me to create an ftp login for web developers that can be used to login to any of the virtual servers, by adding the developer username to the virtual server's group and setting all the directories and files in the virtual server public_html directory to group share(umask 002)? I just can't seem to be able to figure out how to create a login that will allow developers access to clients websites. the server keeps denying access to anything i create outside of the virtualmin interface. I use the following to add a user(victory is fictional, of course)

Postfix virtual maps

Hi All

I have a fresh net install of Debian Etch and I keep getting this Postfix error when I do the Configuration checking with the vitualmin install.

A problem was found with your Postfix virtual maps : The map source mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual-alias-maps.cf cannot be used : The MySQL configuration parameter table was not found. Webmin needs this to figure out which table and fields to query.

I followed this tutorial

IPCCommTimeout setting in VM

Where can I set the IPCCommTimeout in VM?

The default of (I think) setting it based on PHP max_execution_time is woefully incorrect. max_execution_time is CPU time and defaults to 30 seconds (reasonable for most environments).

But IPCCommTimeout is wall-clock time. Hence process exit after 31 seconds of clock time if there's been no data. Way too short.

If max_execution_time is to be used as a basis, I'd suggest IPCCommTimeout be set to max_execution_time * 20 or something.
