NAME
ftpscrub - scrub the proftpd scoreboard file of stale entries SYNOPSIS
ftpscrub DESCRIPTION
The ftpscrub command provides a way to scrub the scoreboard file on demand, at times which suit the site best. This should be run periodi- cally on sites which run proftpd in inetd mode. OPTIONS
-h,--help Display a short usage description, including all available options. -f,--file scoreboard-file Specify the full path to proftpd's run-time scoreboard file (configured via the ScoreboardFile directive in proftpd.conf ). If proftpd's default directory has been changed via this directive, ftpscrub must either be recompiled, or this option must be used in order to find proftpd's scoreboard. -v,--verbose Reports additional information while scrubbing the scoreboard.
