Hi all

Here is a pragmatic problem. I used vsftpd to setup a ftp server. And as a result, some guys start to download something from my ftp server. I do want to know the downloader's IP and the speed he/she download from me, just as a status-watching for my notebook. Can anyone give me some clue how to do this stuff? Using vsftpd itself or using some freebsd utilities are both acceptable. I appreciate any suggestions.
...this is not really a "pragmatic" problem. You are using an FTP server that aims to be simple and light. VSFTPD does not have any tools to provide you with usage, to my knowledge.

* ProFTPD, on the other hand, has utility programs (ftpwho, ftpcount, ftptop) that read the scoreboard and display the information you are looking for. Security record of PROFTPD: http://secunia.com/search/?search=proftpd

* PureFTPD has a utility (pure-ftpwho) that will also display the information you are looking for. Security record of PUREFTPD: http://secunia.com/search/?search=pureftpd

HTH.
