# This is a basic ProFTPD configuration file (rename it to

# To prevent DoS attacks, set the maximum number of child processes
# to 30. If you need to allow more than 30 concurrent connections
# at once, simply increase this value. Note that this ONLY works
# in standalone mode, in inetd mode you should use an inetd server
# that allows you to limit maximum number of processes per service
# (such as xinetd)
MaxInstances 10

# Set the user and group that the server normally runs at.

Group nogroup

# Normally, we want files to be overwriteable.

# Default root can be used to put users in a chroot environment.
# As an example if you have a user foo and you want to put foo in /home/foo
# chroot environment you would do this:
#
DefaultRoot /home/myuser myuser
