twoftpd-auth (1)

twoftpd-auth cvmodule twoftpd-xfer

twoftpd-auth reads a username and password from the network and authenticates them using the CVM module cvmodule. If the authentication succeeds, it sets the environment variables UID, GID, HOME, and USER to the user's UID, GID, home directory, and login name respectively, and then executes twoftpd-xfer. It also sets GROUP if the CVM reports a group name, and AUTHENTICATED to 1 (twoftpd-auth and twoftpd-xfer look for this variable to determine what startup banner code to use).

AUTH_ATTEMPTS

AUTH_TIMEOUT

The maximum number of seconds to wait for successful authentication.

LOGINBANNER

If set, the contents of this variable will be sent as extra responses before the user logs in.

The maximum number of seconds to wait for command input.
