A very quick Google and reading the docs came up with: http://www.proftpd.org/docs/faq/linked/faq-ch6.html#AEN639 Does this do what you want? For future reference, it's a good idea to try stuff like this first. If you still can't work out how to do something, then at least tell us what you've tried. And one of the proftpd mailing lists might also have been a better place to ask. More good advice can be found at http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html. Hope this helps, James. -- E-mail address: james | It is a mistake to allow any mechanical object to @westexe.demon.co.uk | realise that you are in a hurry.
