How to alter the startup call for VSFTPD (or any other service?)
relates to How to setup VSFTPD for multiple users including adding specific directories, where 'we' want to control which directory a user logging in to an FTP service is shown.
The answer is to alter the service's start up call, adding a "user_config_dir" argument which tells the program to look in a special configuration file with respect to the individual user logging in to the service.
So, how do I define this startup call?
Also-and I will delete this part if I'm off base--does controlling the startup call have anything to do with running the service in 'standalone mode' vs via the 'inetd daemon' neither of which I have the the faintest idea about yet, sadly.
