I'm using cpanel with Pure-ftpd ftp service...

Many of my users has more than 2000 files in a folder but Pure-ftpd cutting down the file listing to max 2000.

Anybody knows wich config file should I touch to increase or delete this limitation?

Any help appreciated!

Don't know about CPanel, but the command line switch is here: Pureftpd README

Thanks for the info j_smith

I already checked the pureftpd manual...and came to same conclusion...but dont know what does that mean:
--------------------------
These arguments have
to be added after the pure-ftpd path in your super-server configuration.
For instance, you want to add the '-s' and '-a 42' flags. Here are what the
configuration lines will look like in your super-server:

- Inetd:
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/local/sbin/pure-ftpd -s -a42
or
ftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/sbin/pure-ftpd pure-ftpd -s -a42

If you use Inetd, don't put space between options and arguments. e.g. use
-a42 instead of -a 42 . Inetd has trouble dealing with a lot of options, and
with characters like ':' .

- Xinetd:

service ftp
{
socket_type = stream
server = /usr/local/sbin/pure-ftpd
server_args = -s -a 42
protocol = tcp
user = root
wait = no
disable = no
}
--------------------------

I don't know where inetd? config file located on cpanel servers to edit and add switch. (Actualy I have no idea what inetd does icon_smile.gif )

Some cPanel gurus can jump in here. I don't know if pure-ftpd is run standalone or via inetd on cPanel.

Sorry

A review of the cpanel FAQ at cpanel.net tells me that the pure-ftpd config file is located here:

/etc/sysconfig/pure-ftpd

Maybe that is a good starting point for you.
