Default

None

Context

server config,<VirtualHost>, <Global>

Module

Compatibility

Description

AuthUserFile specifies an alternate passwd file, having the same format as the system /etc/passwd file, and if specified is used during authentication and user lookups for directory/access control operations. The path argument should be the full path to the specified file. AuthUserFile can be configured on a per-VirtualHost basis, so that virtual FTP servers can each have their own authentication database (most often used in conjunction with AuthGroupFile).

Note that this file need not reside inside a chroot()ed directory structure for Anonymous or DefaultRoot logins, as it is held open for the duration of client connections.
