| How do I go about adding users to pro-ftpd? like
username: bob password: bob directory /home/bob
how would I go about doing that? And also making sure they have only ftp access and no ssh access what so ever. Thanks in advance guys.

| userdel username
You can use userdel -r username if you also want to remove the home directory of the specified user.

| hmm still having problems with this, pro-ftpd still says login incorrect
(to set there password I need to type passwd (there username)) after running the command right?
Do I need to make a group of ftp users or?
