virtual ftp users with expiration date?

hi,
I have to thank the authors of the ftp-virtual-users howto's. I have being reading every word of some of them and they are great (cristal clear and straight to the point). Thanks for making my life much more easier. ;-)

However I haven't seen any mention to the possibility of authomatically disabling virtual users after X days . Does anyone know if that is possible? If so.. do you know how?

Thanks for sharing your knowlege.

 

Are you talking about the ProFTPd or PureFTPd tutorials?

 

pureFTP on Debian but I wouldn't care using proFTPd

 

You can add a column to the ftpd table that holds until when the account is valid and then adjust this query:

Code:

MYSQLGetPW      SELECT Password FROM ftpd WHERE User="\L" AND status="1" AND (ipaccess = "*" OR ipaccess LIKE "\R")

 

the simple the better.
thanks

 

Sorry to bother you again,

Now I need to use vsftpd!!! añdlk!!!
That's what I call Murphy's law!

Is it possible with vsftpd? I've read the howto and it seems a little different and no sql is described to get the user.

 

I don't think you can do that with vsftpd...
