UPDATE - command line program to add users is available

#1 Post by londo58 » 2009-11-10 04:17

I was thinking of writing a command line program to add users to the xml file and create the users home directory if it is not already available.

This EXE could then be called by whatever front end program a user wanted to create - basically do a system call in whatever language
EXE -u username -p password -d home directory

once done, and tested, I could add back to this project if there is any interest

let me know and I can start on this tomorrow or wednesday

if there already is an EXE or commandline executable available please let me know?? my requirement is an EXE

thanks

Can this code be contributed to the filezilla project so others can use it if they want

is there a process to submit peripheral code like this?? or at least point me in the right direction of who to contact or docs?

thanks

command line utility is ready

#5 Post by londo58 » 2010-01-23 17:20

the commandline utility to add users is ready for anyone interested.

it meets my needs and have one other user for it already

it is written in c/c++ using visual studio 6, and the source is available for anyone interested or I can give you a binary
if you understand that you are using it at your own risk

you can email me if interested in either option - put filezilla server command line in the subject

You should really consider posting this up on sourceforge.net or launchpad as you will gain automatic hosting and a larger user base if it is hosted by a legitimate site. I myself just released a log analyzer for FileZilla Server and made a post here with a link to my sourceforge project (can be seen here: http://forum.filezilla-project.org/view ... =6&t=14719 ) and it works well... much better than you manually handing out scripts that with questionable integrity (not saying that all posts on sourceforge are legitimate, but they are much safer as it is assessable to the open source community and if it is a bad or malicious script, you will be sure to know about it before downloading it). Hope that helps and thanks for sharing your script. :)
