Pure FTPD

Debian’s Pure FTPD runs by pure-ftpd-wrapper, that configures and starts the daemon. pure-ftpd-wrapper reads config files found in /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/, that must follow their related option schema, on a file-per-argument basis. E.g., for setting a Quota, that is configured in the command line with -n %d:%d, it is needed to place the configuration in /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/Quota. Quota is configured with two numbers: max number of files, and max size. To set a quota of 100 files and 20 MB, the contents of /etc/pure-ftpd/conf/Quota must be 100 20.

Note that, in the quota example, the client must reconnect if there are changes in the server.
