Manage FileZilla User Accounts using PHP

[Subhasish Nag]

Hello,

I am Subhasish Nag, an IT Professional with having 4 years 9 months experience in PHP, ASP.Net and many more.

Right now I am a Project Manager of a company. In our company we have our solely dedicated Windows 2003 server where I have installed FileZilla Server version and managing the ftp section.

I have the Remote Desktop Connection by which I can log in into the server and can add/edit/delete the username and password with accessing directories and permissions.

It is very much tough to manage the users by this way. Actually as I know PHP programming very well, so it will be better if you can enable the software to use the internal feature via COM. Using PHP, I want to call the internal functions via COM. So, I can see the users and password via PHP and add/modify/delete those users and do everything in respect of a users functionalities.

Please let me know if it possible or not? If possible or if you have already done the features, then please give the code.

You can directly edit FileZilla Server.xml. The file format is self-explanatory. Just create a few sample accounts manually and you can easily see the structure. Passwords are stored as MD5 hashes btw.

Afterwards call "FileZilla Server.exe" /reload-config.
