Hello,
    Sorry if this is a repost, but i am having some email difficulties. I am
getting a startup error message: "Can not find the ftp account" when
atempting to start pure-ftpd. I'm using this on a 5.x machine, and i've
created a pure-ftpd user, but i don't see a facility to specify user and
group the server should run as.
    I've got a diff of changes i made to the pure-ftpd.conf file which i
copied from pure-ftpd.conf.sample and would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks.
Dave.

My diff command was:
diff pure-ftpd.conf pure-ftpd.conf.sample >pureftpd
which is here
