Install pureftpd with the MySQL backend:

apt-get install pure-ftpd-mysql

Since I like having different log files for different services I edit syslog.conf to separate ftp log files to specific one:

vi /etc/syslog.conf

Add these line at the end of the file:

ftp.* /var/log/ftp

Create the required file and restart sysklogd:

touch /var/log/ftp
/etc/init.d/sysklogd restart

Edit MySQL connection information for pureftpd user:

vi /etc/pure-ftpd/db/mysql.conf

Add or uncomment the following lines in the file. Don’t forget to change the user and password details.

MYSQLSocket      /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
MYSQLUser       pure-ftpd
MYSQLPassword   pure-ftpd_pass
MYSQLDatabase   pureftpd
MYSQLCrypt      cleartext
MYSQLGetPW      SELECT Password FROM users WHERE User="\L"
MYSQLGetUID     SELECT Uid FROM users WHERE User="\L"
MYSQLGetGID     SELECT Gid FROM users WHERE User="\L"
MYSQLGetDir     SELECT Dir FROM users WHERE User="\L"
MySQLTransactions On

Some more configuration settings and pure-uploadscript setup:

echo no > /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/PAMAuthentication
echo yes > /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/CreateHomeDir
echo yes > /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/CallUploadScript
echo yes > /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/ChrootEveryone

Edit PurFtpd’s common settings:

vi /etc/default/pure-ftpd-common

Change / uncomment the following lines:

STANDALONE_OR_INETD=standalone
VIRTUALCHROOT=false
UPLOADSCRIPT=/path/to/pure-ftpd/uploadscript
UPLOADUID=0
UPLOADGID=0

Create MySQL users, apply permissions for the details set on /etc/pure-ftpd/db/mysql.conf . Also create users table for PureFtpd web admin:

CREATE DATABASE pureftpd;
GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP ON pureftpd.* TO 'pure-ftpd'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'pure-ftpd_pass';
GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP ON pureftpd.* TO 'pure-ftpd'@'localhost.localdomain' IDENTIFIED BY 'pure-ftpd_pass';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
CREATE TABLE `users` (
  `User` varchar(32) NOT NULL,
  `Password` varchar(32) character SET latin1 collate latin1_bin NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
  `Uid` int(11) NOT NULL DEFAULT '14',
  `Gid` int(11) NOT NULL DEFAULT '5',
  `Dir` varchar(128) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
  `QuotaFiles` int(10) NOT NULL DEFAULT '500',
  `QuotaSize` int(10) NOT NULL DEFAULT '30',
  `ULBandwidth` int(10) NOT NULL DEFAULT '80',
  `DLBandwidth` int(10) NOT NULL DEFAULT '80',
  `Ipaddress` varchar(15) NOT NULL DEFAULT '*',
  `Comment` tinytext,
  `Status` enum('0','1') NOT NULL DEFAULT '1',
  `ULRatio` smallint(5) NOT NULL DEFAULT '1',
  `DLRatio` smallint(5) NOT NULL DEFAULT '1',
  PRIMARY KEY  (`User`),
  UNIQUE KEY `User` (`User`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1

Create uploadscript.sh referred on previous step:

#!/bin/bash
 
    # UPLOAD_SIZE  : the size of the file, in bytes.
    # UPLOAD_PERMS : the permissions, as an octal value.
    # UPLOAD_UID   : the uid of the owner.
    # UPLOAD_GID   : the group the file belongs to.
    # UPLOAD_USER  : the name of the owner.
    # UPLOAD_GROUP : the group name the file belongs to.
    # UPLOAD_VUSER : the full user name, or the virtual user name. (127 chars max)
 
# Do something useful

Install the PureFTPd user manager:

1. Download the user manager for PureFtpd from here
2. Uncompress the file to a web accessible directory:
3. Point your browser to the chosen directory and open the file install.php
4. Follow the installation steps

And you’re done!
