NAME

6       ftpgroups - FTP Server enhanced group access file

SYNOPSIS

9       /etc/ftpd/ftpgroups
10
11

DESCRIPTION

13       The ftpgroups file contains the enhanced group access information.
14
15
16       After  login,  if  the ftpaccess(4) file includes private yes, the user
17       may use the SITE GROUP and SITE GPASS commands to specify  an  enhanced
18       access  group  and  a password for that group. If the access group name
19       and password are valid, the FTP Server executes setuid(2) to  make  the
20       user a member of the real group listed in the ftpgroups file.
21
22
23       The format for the ftpgroups file is:
24
25         accessgroup:encrypted_password:real_group_name
26

31       accessgroup           An  arbitrary string of alphanumeric and punctua‐
32                             tion characters.
33
34
35       encrypted_password    The group  password  encrypted  exactly  like  in
36                             /etc/shadow.
37
38
39       real_group_name       The  name  of  a  valid  group returned by getgr‐
40                             nam(3C).

44       The privatepw utility is an administrative tool to add, delete and list
45       enhanced  access  group  information  in  the  ftpgroups file. See pri‐
46       vatepw(1M). Lines that begin with a # sign are treated as comment lines
47       and are ignored.
