Virtual Hosting With Proftpd And MySQL (Incl. Quota) On Fedora 9
Sat, 19 Jul 2008 21:30:49 -0000
"This document describes how to install a Proftpd server that uses virtual users from a MySQL database instead of real system users. This is much more performant and allows to have thousands of ftp users on a single machine. In addition to that I will show the use of quota with this setup."

The Linux and Unix Menagerie: "As promised, in yesterday's post on converting binary values to decimal in C, today we're going to follow up with straight-up ports to Perl and shell. Actually, they'll be slightly different. If you check yesterday's post, for some reason I left in a variable called "difference" which was a part of the code I mentioned that I had originally written to pad 0's on the left hand side of a binary number less than 8 digits."
