Hello All,
I'm running FreeBSD 4.4.

I would like to setup an FTP server for a couple of hundred users, but i
don't want to create so many UNIX login accounts. Instead I want to
authenticate them using a Username/Password table in a PostgreSQL database.

Is there a way to do it? What is pam_pgsql?

Any pointers to docs or tutorial is appreciated.
thanks
Nathan
