DisplayFirstChdir

Description

The DisplayFirstChdir directive configures an ASCII text filename which will be displayed to the user the first time they change into a directory (via CWD) per a given session. The file will also be displayed if proftpd detects that its last modification time has changed since the previous CWD into a given directory. If the filename is relative, it is looked for in the new directory that the user has changed into. Note that for anonymous ftp logins (see <Anonymous>), the file must reside inside the chroot()ed file system space. If the file cannot be found or accessed, no error occurs and nothing is logged or displayed to the client.

DisplayFirstChdir, DisplayConnect, DisplayLogin and DisplayQuit support the following "magic cookies" (only in 0.99.0pl10 and later), which are replaced with their respective strings before being displayed to the user.

%C	Current working directory

%E	Server admin's e-mail address

%F	Available space on file system, in bytes

%f      Available space on file system, with units

%i      The number of files uploaded (input) in this session

%L	Local host name

%M	Max number of connections

%N	Current number of connections

%o      The number of files downloaded (output) in this session

%R	Remote host name

%T	Current Time

%t      The number of files transfered (uploaded and downloaded) in this session

%U	Username originally used in login

%u	Username reported by ident protocol

%V	Name of virtual host (if any)

%x	The name of the user's class

%y	Current number of connections from the user's class

%z	Max number of connections from the user's class

NOTE: not all of these may have a rational value, depending on the context in which they're used (e.g., %u if ident lookups are off).
