a /etc/ftpusers .Nd FTP access list file .Sh DESCRIPTION
a /etc/ftpusers contains a list of users that should be allowed or denied FTP access. Each line contains a user, optionally followed by .Dq allow (anything but .Dq allow is ignored). The semi-user .Dq * matches any user. Users that has an explicit .Dq allow , or that does not match any line, are allowed access. Anyone else is denied access.
p Note that this is compatible with the old format, where this file contained a list of users that should be denied access. .Sh EXAMPLES This will deny anyone but .Dq foo and .Dq bar to use FTP: d -literal foo allow bar allow * .Ed .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr ftpd 8
