NAME
       ftpgroups - FTP Server enhanced group access file

SYNOPSIS
       /etc/ftpd/ftpgroups

DESCRIPTION
       The ftpgroups file contains the enhanced group access information.

       After  login,  if  the ftpaccess(4) file includes private yes, the user
       may use the SITE GROUP and SITE GPASS commands to specify  an  enhanced
       access  group  and  a password for that group. If the access group name
       and password are valid, the FTP Server executes setuid(2) to  make  the
       user a member of the real group listed in the ftpgroups file.

       The format for the ftpgroups file is:

	 accessgroup:encrypted_password:real_group_name

       The fields are defined as follows:

       accessgroup
			     An	 arbitrary string of alphanumeric and punctua‐
			     tion characters.

       encrypted_password
			     The group	password  encrypted  exactly  like  in
			     /etc/shadow.

       real_group_name
			     The  name	of  a  valid  group returned by getgr‐
			     nam(3C).

       The privatepw utility is an administrative tool to add, delete and list
       enhanced	 access	 group	information  in	 the  ftpgroups file. See pri‐
       vatepw(1M). Lines that begin with a # sign are treated as comment lines
       and are ignored.
