SITE Commands
Syntax: SiteMiscEngine on|off
Default: on
Context: server config, <VirtualHost>, <Global>
Module: mod_site_misc
Compatibility: 1.3.3c and later
The SiteMiscEngine directive enables or disables the module's
runtime support for the SITE commands. If set to off,
this module will not support these SITE commands. Use this
directive to disable the module.
This SITE command allows the creation of a full directory
path, similar to mkdir -p /path/to/dir. It is primarily for
convenience, instead of having to use a loop of MKD and
CWD commands; the normal MKD FTP command only
creates a single directory at a time.
The syntax for SITE MKDIR is:
SITE MKDIR path
Use of this SITE command can be controlled via
<Limit> sections, e.g.:
<Limit SITE_MKDIR>
AllowUser alex
DenyAll
</Limit>
This SITE command allows the deletion of a full directory
path, similar to rm -fr /path/to/dir. It recursively deletes all
of the files and directories under the given path. This command is
primarily for convenience, instead of having to use a loop of NLST,
DELE, and CWD commands; the normal DELE
FTP command only deletes a single file at a time, and the normal
RMD command does not handle removing directories that are not
empty.
The syntax for SITE RMDIR is:
SITE RMDIR path
Use of this SITE command can be controlled via
<Limit> sections, e.g.:
<Limit SITE_RMDIR>
AllowUser alex
DenyAll
</Limit>
This SITE command allows the creation of symbolic links, similar
to ln -s.
The syntax for SITE SYMLINK is:
SITE SYMLINK source destination
Use of this SITE command can be controlled via
<Limit> sections, e.g.:
<Limit SITE_SYMLINK>
AllowUser alex
DenyAll
</Limit>
This SITE command allows for setting the access and modification
timestamps on files, similar to the touch /path/to/file command.
This allows sites to have the often-requested ability to set the modification
time on uploaded files.
The syntax for SITE UTIME is:
SITE UTIME YYYYMMDDhhmm[ss] path
For example:
SITE UTIME 200402240836 file.txt
SITE UTIME 20040224083655 file.txt
to 8:36 AM, Febrary 24, 2004 (or 8:36:55 AM, Febrary 24, 2004, respectively).
Another variant syntax is also supported:
SITE UTIME path YYYYMMDDhhmm[ss] YYYYMMDDhhmm[ss] YYYYMMDDhhmm[ss] UTC
For example:
SITE UTIME file.txt 20040224083655 20040224083655 20040224083655 UTC
The timestamp specified is treated as being in GMT/UTC, rather than in the
local timezone.
Use of this SITE command can be controlled via
<Limit> sections, e.g.:
<Limit SITE_UTIME>
AllowUser alex
DenyAll
</Limit>
The mod_site_misc module is distributed with ProFTPD. Simply
follow the normal steps for using third-party modules in proftpd:
$ ./configure --with-modules=mod_site_misc
To build mod_site_misc as a DSO module:
$ ./configure --enable-dso --with-shared=mod_site_misc
Then follow the usual steps:
$ make
$ make install
Alternatively, if your proftpd was compiled with DSO support, you
can use the prxs tool to build mod_site_misc as a
shared module:
$ prxs -c -i -d mod_site_misc.c
