Darkone, great ftpd, can't wait for your zipscript/sitebot.

1. Resolve host to ip, so you can add hosts to a users ip (adduser/addip) Same note, show invalidip if you cannot login for that reason, instead of incorrect password.

2. Allowing changing of others passwords. Some ppl are dumb and forget them, needing the admin to change it.

3. Glftpd like VFS Rights.
mkdir /site/blah/* =blah

4. A few site commands.

site flags command, like gl. (great for quick reference)
site wipe

If you haven't noticed there is option for this in ini :) (not that it was implemented yet.. but still it's already on todo list) Invalid ip isnt shown nor will be shown - user should know when he is connecting from allowed ip.


2. Allowing changing of others passwords. Some ppl are dumb and forget them, needing the admin to change it.

This is already implemented into coming version. (as site change <user> password <password> - no site chpass)


3. Glftpd like VFS Rights.
mkdir /site/blah/* =blah

We've already discussed about this on the channel :p Something similar to it will be implemented..


4. A few site commands.

site wipe

Wipe is a rather tricky command to implement in windows due to sharing problems. My solution for it: ioFTPD will close all the transfers related to the target directory/file. After that it tries to delete all contents except .ioFTPD files, which are left behind incase deletion of other files does not succeed. On fail: Directory and its' conetents are to be moved into temporary location on same partition, which is cleaned several times a day.
What comes to 'site flags', i suggest you writing your own script for such.. (should be very easy to do with tcl) :)
