   7 .SH NAME
   8 ftpusers \- file listing users to be disallowed ftp login privileges

  15 .SH DESCRIPTION
  16 .sp
  17 .LP
  18 The \fBftpusers\fR file lists users for whom \fBftp\fR login privileges are
  19 disallowed. Each \fBftpuser\fR entry is a single line of the form:
  20 .sp
  21 .in +2
  22 .nf
  23 name
  24 .fi
  25 .in -2
  26 
  27 .sp
  28 .LP
  29 where \fBname\fR is the user's login name.
  30 .sp
  31 .LP
  32 The FTP Server, \fBin.ftpd\fR(1M), reads the \fBftpusers\fR file. If the login
  33 name of the user matches one of the entries listed, it rejects the login
  34 attempt.
  35 .sp
  36 .LP


  67 \fB/etc/default/login\fR file. See \fBlogin\fR(1). If you allow \fBroot\fR
  68 login privileges by deleting the root entry in \fBftpusers\fR, you should also
  69 modify the security policy in \fB/etc/default/login\fR to reflect the site
  70 security policy for remote login access by \fBroot\fR.
  71 .sp
  72 .LP
  73 Other default entries are administrative identities that are typically assumed
  74 by system applications but never used for local or remote login, for example
  75 \fBsys\fR and \fBnobody\fR. Since these entries do not have a valid password
  76 field instantiated in \fBshadow\fR(4), no login can be performed.
  77 .sp
  78 .LP
  79 If a site adds similar administrative or system application identities in
  80 \fBpasswd\fR(4) and \fBshadow\fR(4), for example, \fBmajordomo\fR, the site
  81 should consider including them in the \fBftpusers\fR file for a consistent
  82 security policy.
  83 .sp
  84 .LP
  85 Lines that begin with \fB#\fR are treated as comment lines and are ignored.
