Hi Marius,
Hi!
thank you very much for your very usefull hints. It seems there comes a bit more work as I thought ;-)
ServerRoot /usr/local/httpd/otherdomain ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Ahm.... do you try to use the ftp-proxy as ftp-server?
Is it right, that ftp-proxy by itself cannot handle as a ftp-server?
Yes, it can't rund as ftp server, because it is a ftp proxy.
I haven't understood how / at which point the ftp-proxy "connect" to the (local) ftp-server. Where is the call to /sbin/ftp-xyz ?
There isn't a call (exec) like this. The proxy connects via TCP (ftp) to the ftp server. In your setup, you can start the ftp server on 127.0.0.1:21 and the proxy on the address if the network interface and set DestinationAddress to 127.0.0.1 (localhost).
What shold be the entry for "ServerRoot"?
It is a directory with all libraries the proxy needs to run,
but no other data.
Read
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/proxy-suite/devel/ftp-proxy-chroot.txt
and also other documentation shipped with the proxy.
Gruesse,
