- Pure-FTPd strives to remain simple to operate, and keeps the number of
- knobs down to a minimum.
- Virtually everything can be set using command-line switches, so that a
- configuration file is not required.
- For example, the '-H' switch is recommended and avoids DNS lookups.
- To enable this feature, just add it right after the executable name:
- /usr/local/sbin/pure-ftpd -H
- Long options are also supported. This is equivalent to the previous
- command:
- /usr/local/sbin/pure-ftpd --dontresolve
- As an alternative to command-line switches, Pure-FTPd can use a
- configuration file. The set of supported features is the same no
- matter what way of configuring the server is beind used.
- A sample configuration file named pure-ftpd.conf should have been installed
- in /etc/, /usr/local/etc/ or another standard location derived from
- the package installation prefix.
- Tweak it according to your needs, and start the server using that file:
- /usr/local/sbin/pure-ftpd /etc/pure-ftpd.conf
- Note the absence of switches. In order to avoid confusion, either a
- configuration file or a set of command-line switches can be used.
