The following reply was made to PR docs/124306; it has been noted by GNATS. From: =?ISO-8859-1?Q?Cl=E9ment_Lavoillotte?= <clement.lavoillotte@free.fr> To: Remko Lodder <remko@FreeBSD.org> Cc: freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org Subject: Re: docs/124306: ftpusers man page says /etc/ftpusers is mandatory to enable ftp access, but it's not Date: Thu, 5 Jun 2008 23:53:43 +0200 Hi, Ok sorry :) Perhaps it should be mentioned in this line that it only applies to =20 lukemftpd ? It may be obvious for most users, but it wasn't for me =20 since I didn't see "lukemftpd" anywhere in ftpusers(5) [nor in ftpd(8) =20= or the handbook ftpd page]. I'm quite new to FreeBSD, so I may not have searched long enough, but =20= I think adding this note to the man page would help people like me to =20= figure out the difference (and not to pollute your PR db) :) Thanks for your time.
