hi,

I have heard that there is a way to have ftpd service requests to
"virtual" ftp servers -- i.e. let's say that I currently have a server
named:  "ftp.plonk.org"  that is tied to the dir:  "/home/ftp"  I now
have a corporate customer that wants us to let their customers ftp to:
"ftp.customer.com"  and have that tied to the dir:
"/home/ftp/users/customer".

Is this really possible? If so how? We are running ws-ftp.2.4 at the
moment.

Dean...K...
