Hi All

I want to setup an ftp account using proftpd so people can log in and
get some files off my server (not anon though, still want a password). 
How do I set up a username and password for this user without making
them a user proper on the whole system?  I can configure proftpd np if
the user is already a user (as added using userdrake).  However, I'm not
at all familiar with all the PAM, authentication gubbins etc.

Thanks for any help

Neil
