ftphosts --
allow or deny access to individual FTP users from various hosts
Description
The ftphosts file is used to allow or deny access to certain
accounts from various hosts.
The following acccess capabilities may be defined:
allow username addrglob [addrglob...]-
Permit users to login as username
only from hosts matching addrglob but from nowhere else.
deny username addrglob [addrglob...]-
Prevent users from logging in as username
from hosts matching addrglob.
A username of anonymous or ftp specifies the
anonymous user.
A username of ``'' matches any user.
addrglob is a regular expression that can be matched against
hostnames or IP addresses.
The first allow or deny line that matches a host is used.
For example:
deny ftp *.mynet.com
allow ftp nile.rivers.mynet.com
would deny access to the ftp account from all hosts in the domain
mynet.com. The allow line for access from
nile.rivers.mynet.com would be not be reached.
To allow access from nile.rivers.mynet.com, the statements should
be placed in the following order:
allow ftp nile.rivers.mynet.com
deny ftp *.mynet.com
If no entry exists for a user, access is allowed.
