FTP Server User List
To determine the users who are allowed access to the FTP server, a list of user names must be included in the registry. To do this, set the UserList registry value to include the list of users and groups who either have access or are denied access to the server. Set the UserList registry value in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMM\FTPD subkey.
Examples
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\COMM\FTPD]
UserList="GladysL;AnnD;-KimYos;@SomeGroup;-@villains"
allows GladysL
, AnnD
, and the SomeGroup
group, but restricts the KimYos
user and the villains
group.
The "* or @* symbol combination allows all users, while the -* or -@* combination denies all users. Group names must be proceeded by the @ symbol.
The string is interpreted sequentially. In other words, if GladysL
is member of the Finance
group, the following strings will allow GladysL
.
GladysL
@Finance
@Finance;GladysL
GladysL;@Finance
@Admins;GladysL
GladysL;-@Finance
GladysL;-GladysL
*;-GladysL;-@Finance
The following strings will restrict GladysL
.
-GladysL
-@Finance
-GladysL;@Finance
-@Finance;GladysL
-GladysL;GladysL
-GladysL;*
