NAME

       ftpusers — file which lists users who are not allowed to use ftp

DESCRIPTION

       /etc/ftpusers  is  used  by ftpd(8); the file contains a list of users who are not allowed to use the ftp
       command. For security reasons at least users like ``root'', ``bin'',  ``uucp''  and  ``news''  should  be
       listed in this file.  Blank lines and lines beginning with `#' are ignored.

       Note:  a  lines  with  `#'  in the middle is not a comment. Don't put `#' after a name to comment it; use
       another line, or things will silently fail on you.

EXAMPLES

       /etc/ftpusers might contain the following entries:

       #
       # /etc/ftpusers
       #
       root
       uucp
       news
