RE: [cobalt-users] proftpd.conf file being overwritten.

John,

I believe so.  If it is not in the postgres database, it may be somewhere in
their "secret sauce".  Can any of the Cobalt People tell us where it may
lay?

I have done the same thing with our corporate one for FTP.  Luckily I keep a
backup of the sites we've modified by hand to do a quick restore when need
be :)

Thanks Brian,

Does it get all the config info from the the postgres database ?

We are editing the file manually via command line, only the user is using
the GUI to add new virtual sites, users etc.

John,

It gets over written because of Cobalt's GUI.  Any time you make a change in
it, it reflashes all of your configuration files.  So basically, anytime you
make a change to a config file, and then configure it in the GUI, you
destroy what you did.  Solution is simple:  DO NOT DO IT IN THE GUI.  Or
write a script to parse the config, and add your stuff back in.

Hi,

I hope someone can help. We had a question

 Q: How can you change the default login path for the site admin user to the

site web directory?

 And found the answer on the knowledgebase
http://cobalt-knowledge.sun.com/cgi-bin/kbase.cfg/php/enduser/std_alp.php  

 The problem that we have now is that the file proftpd.conf keeps getting
overwritten and we cant work out why.

 Any ideas ?

 Thanks

 John
