Command-line user account creation?

#1 Post by azadi » 2008-03-20 03:30

does FZ support command-line or some other automated way of user account creation?
i am looking into automatically creating an ftp account for registered users of a website...
if FZ does not have this feature, anyone knows of a (preferably free) ftp server that supports it?

cheers,

Azadi

You can directly modify "FileZilla Server.xml" and afterwards just call "FileZilla Server.exe" /reload-config

Ok - I want to do this - what is the password encrypted?

I can write out the XML but I need to know how I should encrypt it...

It's not encrypted, it is hashed, fundamentally different. The used hashing algorithm is MD5.
