    Default Question: Serverwide FTP Session control?

    Is it possible to do a serverwide FTP session control listing all current ftp logins and transfers either in WHM (preferably) or via SSH?

    Thank you,

    This is not supported in WHM, but you can do this via SSH as root.

    If you are using ProFTPD, you would use:

    Code:
    /usr/bin/ftpwho
    If you are using PureFTPd, you would use:

    Code:
    /usr/sbin/pure-ftpwho

    This command works the same, for pure-ftpd of course:

    service pure-ftpd status

    FTP also logs everything to /var/log/messages so you can grep it if you would like to look at what has been run in the recent (or not so recent) past.
