Hello, dear professionals! We have a project to reorganize the infrastructure of the company. I am instructed to put into operation a new file server on Linux, instead of the former FileZilla. Stopped on proftpd.

Task: automated migration of 600+ accounts with mapping of their folders and, most importantly, passwords.

I tried proftpd + MySQL, several proftpd variants with virtual users. Nothing yet.

FZ stores accounts in an XML file, passwords are hashed using MD5 and without salt. Proftpd saves MD5 with salt to a configuration file. I do not realize how to merge them.

Maybe, who knows, at least in which direction to search further? Thanks for the tips!

  • No Let new passwords give birth. Hehe. In general, it would be time to learn how to live in a new way. Users are not in some kind of MySQL, but in Active Directory. And services that do not understand AD, delete, and then format the disk. - Sergey
  • no, well, I'm only for =) but the problem here is that users are mostly third-party clients of the company from around the world. - Mag O'Med
  • They are the same. There are some options to keep strangers in AD - Sergey
